What I'm looking for

I’m seeking an opportunity to contribute while developing a long-term career in a practical or technology-focused environment.

At Slam Dunk in Somerset Mall, I assisted customers, performed stocktaking, and operated the cashier during a seasonal role. I also helped maintain an organised store.

Through LIFE CHOICES ACADEMY — YOUTHCODE OFF-SITE PROGRAMME, I completed backend web development training in PHP, Node.js, databases, and MySQL. My full-stack e-commerce core project received a 92% assessment.

I’ve also completed practical training in carpentry and painting, including ironmongery installation and preparing surfaces for painting. At D&P; Building Service, I assisted with wood deliveries and general labour tasks.
