What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, values innovation, and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a detail-oriented and tech-proficient professional with a Master of Agriculture degree, specializing in food security. My experience spans various roles where I have honed my administrative, data entry, and organizational skills. I thrive in environments that require managing both qualitative and quantitative data, ensuring high-quality output even under pressure.

Throughout my career, I have successfully collaborated with multidisciplinary teams, utilizing tools like Microsoft Office, Zoom, and Google Workspace to enhance productivity. My internships at the University of KwaZulu-Natal have equipped me with the ability to draft formal communications, organize digital records, and facilitate knowledge-sharing initiatives, all while maintaining a strong focus on accuracy and detail.

As I continue to advance my knowledge in data entry and support online collaboration, I am eager to contribute my skills to a dynamic team that values efficiency and innovation. I am committed to delivering exceptional results and fostering a collaborative work environment.
