About me

I’m 19 and am looking to begin an exciting new career. I am currently self employed and run a highly successful shoe customisation business in which I run all aspects of the business such as; hand painting the shoes, updating finance documents and business management, social media content, product development and customer relations. I am a hardworking and organised individual who can adapt to any task presented. I have keen interested in multiple industries; business, fashion and property and wish to pursue careers in those fields. Although previously my experience in certain areas has been limited, in the past year I have built a business from scratch during a global pandemic and seen it thrive when a number of other long- standing businesses have failed. I'm extremely adaptable and am looking forward to taking the next step in my career.

Mar 2020Brighton, United KingdomFull Time
I created and currently run my own shoe customisation business. It has been highly successful with over 700 sales in my first year and a large turnover. From this I have experience all aspects of a business such as product production, customer services, accounting and marketing. It allows me to be creative in my designs and express my business acumen proving I have the capacity to single handedly run a successful small business.

I use social media day to day and also go out and work directly with the public in a sales position, promoting and interacting in order to gain business. This has helped me develop my social skills and has helped me understand how different people respond to marketing differently so that I can adapt my sales style.
