PROFILE
I am an enthusiastic, patient and passionate person with excellent I.T, leadership and
organizational skills. I am a quick learner and adapt to my role in any environment. My biggest
passion in life is business it was my favourite subject in school and I continued to study it in third

market space with one of my own ideas.

CAREER HISTORY
My career history has mostly been in retail and business with most of my titles as sales assistant.
My last employer was Homesavers. I was a sales assistant mostly working on the floor of the
store being patient and compliant with customers. I cleaned at the end of each shift and all
around I am use to working in retail. Before Homesavers both of my other experiences came from
work experience during secondary school. I worked in Supervalu for my work experience in fifth
year and I work in an auctioneer office during transition year.
