Summary

Adept at learning and teaching new techniques. Whilst more than capable in customer satisfaction, accounting and general paperwork come second nature to me. Rarely did I find myself in a position that didn't require adapting to changes on the fly while learning new skills needed for jobs outside my initial position.
