Summary
I have completed my Bachelor of Space Science, where I have been able to display an elevated level of scientific capabilities, such as scientific research, technical and scientific writing, experimental setups, conducting experiments, and mission planning within a group of multidisciplinary individuals, allowing me to adapt and work in any situation. In terms of work, I have worked mainly in the food industry, starting off at McDonald's for several years and moving on to agency work with Chandler McLeod, where I have worked in a factory setting at Mondelez (Cadbury) and George Western Foods (Tip Top), where I am currently working full-time as an assistant baker. My working and educational background has allowed me to adapt to fast-paced, loud environments, making me adept and versatile in problem-solving, ensuring high manufacturing standards, and demonstrating a willingness to work, as well as the ability to work and lead in a team successfully.
