Summary

Leaving my country hometown of Tumby Bay and becoming a boarder at Immanuel College in Adelaide, I have experienced many different working environments with a large diversity of people. Throughout my previous schooling, sporting and working life I have acknowledged that the key to success in any given situation is teamwork and the ability to adapt and learn new tasks quickly and effectively while placing upmost due diligence on safety. My time in both rural and metropolitan areas has given me hands on skills in a wide array of tasks and settings. I strongly believe that these key attributes are the composition of a strong employee and are characteristics that I strive to uphold within my own working life.
