I would describe myself as an enthusiastic, energetic Individual that always tries to put a smile on people’s faces. I grew up on a horse farm in Zambia (Africa) which has made me unafraid of early mornings and late nights. I strive to do my best to achieve a high standard in everything I undertake and love new challenges. I am a friendly student available for weekend, evening and holiday shifts.
