About me
I am an energetic, committed and passionate individual with exceptional skills in communication and performance. With over five years’ experience in the performance industry working around the world in professional shows and teaching young children and adults I am able to establish supportive relationships with people from all walks of life. I enjoy being part of a positive and pro-active environment, I am able to prioritise my time wisely as well as tasks and projects resulting in successful organisational skills and being able to calmly and productively manage large groups of children and adults in the most effective way. My experience in business development for a performance, fitness and creative focused company as well as my tenacious and proactive approach has resulted in vital contract and profit gain for the company. I have developed exceptional networking skills and the ability to sustain long relationships with important clients. I feel reliability and loyalty are imperative attributes which I believe I possess as well as punctuality and being able to balance a diverse workload. I am an enthusiastic person who takes great pride in doing everything to the best of my ability and I relish in taking on new challenges.
