What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to utilize my research and writing skills while providing opportunities for growth and learning.

I am a recent graduate with a Bachelor of Arts from Nelson Mandela University, where I graduated with Cum Laude honors. My academic journey has equipped me with strong research and writing skills, which I have applied in various administrative roles. I am passionate about learning and continuously improving my skill set.

Throughout my experience, I have worked in administrative positions at Centridge and Cape Recife High School, where I honed my abilities in writing lease agreements, file storage, and record keeping. My adaptability and dedication have allowed me to thrive in these environments, and I am eager to bring my skills to a new opportunity.
