About me
I have been working within the creative media industry for almost four years now, and I have gained experience in a variety of different roles. Being a freelance personal assistant for Natalie Woods has allowed me to work on TV shows, with companies such as Channel 5 and to arrange both small and large media events. Being within the Journalism and PR industry has given me the skills to work at a fast pace and to make a variety of connections in the media industry. I would now like to take the skills I have gained and move them into any future role within a creative industry. Being a freelancer means that I can allow myself to start my new full-time position with immediate effect. I have been praised over the years for my 'can-do' attitude and professionalism. I also have a variety of skills that would support this role, such as event organising, dealing with VIP's,  excellent communications skills (both written and verbal), excellent IT skills using Adobe, Microsoft Office and a variety of e-mail servers. I have kept myself extremely busy over the years, and I do not want this to change. I am a person who would take an emergency call in the middle of the night from any of my jobs, and love to be in high demand. Being rushed off my feet is what makes me love what I do with each day being different.
