About me
A biomedical sciences alumnus whom has a passion for the artistically innovative and the quaintly cultural. My motivation has always been steeped in the importance of all things ethical and attaining harmony with myself and others. I would describe myself as friendly and innately personable. I aim to make a positive difference in peoples lives no matter how big or small the gesture may be. I feel enthralled to apply for careers that interact with creative people due to my imaginative and empathetic nature. I believe I can bring this to your organisation.
I have always loved speaking in my mother tongues in particular Punjabi and Hindi. As it keeps me in tune with all my family. I have a large and close knit family and I cherish spending time with the younger children. Instilling creativity and helping them with school projects, thrills me. However busy, I am constantly trying to visit gallery exhibitions, independent music events and gigs in surrounding cities and abroad. I lately have learnt the personal importance of keeping in contact with other creative people via creating photo shoots with my extended work family. I am also trying to learn as much as I can from them because I respect their creative drive. No matter how unconventional their methods may be.
Travelling is my biggest passion. Even though I do not do as much of it as I would prefer, both for business and for leisure. Experiencing their language, traditions and cuisine. Socialising with people from different backgrounds abroad have since spurred me into learning to cook international cuisine. I am also currently in the process of learning how to make jewellery and sew my own garments.
This position involves a broader understanding of people as individuals, rather than a collective. With the maturity and professionalism to work in an office environment. I believe I possess the necessary hunger for knowledge and community spirit that allure me to your need to fill this position.
