My Ethos
I am firm believer in the following phrase, "anything is possible in
life if you work hard for it and never give up". This is the
philosophy that I have applied in my life and continue to apply
everyday. Together with this philosophy is the importance of being
open and always willing to learn new things. Life-long learning is an
important part of my outlook on life therefore I am always willing to
learn and improve myself wherever the opportunity arises. I am also a
team player and believe that through working together we can achieve
more. I consider myself a self-motivated, consummate professional and am
able to work well under pressure and in stressful situations.
My goal is to use the knowledge, experience and skills that I have
attained to add tangible value wherever I find myself both in my
professional and personal life. I know that I will add value to any
team due to my positivity and willingness to go the extra mile. I have
had years of experience in customer service and sales which will
indirectly complement my career in the tech industry.
