## About

```text
I’m a Durban-based Admin assistant with experience supporting day-to-day operations through reliable administrative work. I bring a calm, focused approach to keeping tasks moving, even when priorities shift.

My background includes a 6-month role at AQUACON HYDRO INDUSTRIES as an Admin assistant (end of contract) and a 6-month position at ZMI BUTCHERY as a Cashier. Across both roles, I’ve built practical confidence in multitasking, fast learning, and working effectively under routine pressure.

I’m also committed to continuous growth through education and training. I completed a Microsoft Unlimited Potentials – Computer Fundamentals course, earned a TEFL Universal – TEFL/TESOL certificate, and am currently studying a Higher Certificate in Pre-school Education—so I can apply communication, structure, and care in both workplace and learning environments.
