What I'm looking for

I am looking for an internship that allows me to apply my logistics knowledge and develop new skills in a supportive environment.

I am a dedicated and enthusiastic learner currently pursuing a logistics degree. My academic journey has equipped me with a strong foundation in leadership skills, and I am eager to apply my theoretical knowledge in a real-world setting. I believe that gaining hands-on experience through an internship will be invaluable for my professional growth.

In my recent role as a Project Manager for a Sports Day event at the SA Maritime and Transport College, I collaborated with school administrators, teachers, and students to conceptualize and execute the event. This experience honed my project management skills, including budgeting, scheduling, and effective communication. I am excited to bring my skills and passion for logistics to a dynamic team.
