I can grow and handle responsibility. My present and past employers are very satisfied with my work, and I am confident that I can bring the same level of high performance to your organization.
Beyond that which is already mentioned, I am someone who knows how to set goals and achieve them. I have a proven track record of being able to conceive, develop & execute strategies with minimal supervision. I feel certain that my strong academic skills coupled with my ability to multitask will be of immediate value to your organization.
Focus
I enjoy learning new things and I'm constantly seeking new learning opportunities. I am also exceptionally organized as evidenced by the multiple teams I am supporting in my current role.
