About me

I am out-going and sociable: I enjoy meeting new people and being around people most of the time. I also enjoy outdoor activities and new adventures. I am hardworking, and have completed my undergraduate degree in law, and my postgraduate masters course in law. I am now studying a Chinese language course in Tianjin, China. I have also been a part-time waitress and have completed various voluntary projects whilst at university: which shows that I am self-motivated and proactive. Working in hospitality has enhanced my customer service skills, and I have proven to be adaptable to diverse projects when volunteering. I have lived in Sydney for a year, in London for 3 years and have travelled for long periods alone and with friends, showing that I am confident enough to cope away from home in new environments

Preferred location

I will be moving to New Zealand in April on a working visa, and so would like to work in Northland in a hostel / bar. I would like to spend my time there working and learning to surf.

Skills

I have studied law at university, and have been a part-time waitress for 7 years. As a result of my extensive experience in hospitality, I am good with people and can be very welcoming to guests. I also enjoy spending time outdoors. I am out-going and sociable, yet very hardworking. I have experience in many roles as a volunteer, showing that I am able to adapt to various roles.
