Personal Statement

I am a genuine people person who is approachable, assertive and trustworthy. I am committed to my own personal and professional continued development. I have valuable customer service and sales experience. This experience I gained through work placements in a variety of customer facing roles e.g. Oxfam, Boots, Argos and Aspire boutique. I hold both BTEC and City and Guilds Certificates in Retail and customer service. These courses and practical work experience placements have provided me with the prerequisite skills, understanding, knowledge and experience necessary  to make  the customer’s shopping and customer service experience an enjoyable one that they will be only too happy and eager to repeat!.

Hobbies and Interests

I love Film, and have a special interest in 3D movies. I have produced and made my own short films, this to include writing the script. I attend the London Film and comic book convention on a yearly basis... I attended a 2-Day Film School with American Producer/Director Dov Simens – the course was held at the University of West Minister- Marylebone Campus in 2010. I have attended film and film production courses at the Raindance Film Festival in London. I have also written and previewed Film and DVD reviews for the teen magazine ‘Exposure’ London. I was worked as a volunteer at Candi Radio and I have volunteered with Barnet Hospital Radio, where I both hosted and produced a show for the patients and their families, every Wednesday evening.
