With a solid educational foundation, including a BPsych Equivalence in Psychometry and a BCom Honours in Industrial Psychology, I have gained practical experience in administering and interpreting psychological assessments. My proficiency in analytics and training facilitation allows me to deliver impactful workshops and training sessions, particularly in Google Workspace tools, enhancing collaboration within client organizations.
