What I'm looking for

I seek an HR or student-support role where I can apply my admissions, recruitment, and administrative skills in a collaborative culture focused on development and impact.

I am a Human Resources and Psychology graduate with hands-on experience in admissions assistance, HR internship tasks, and peer tutoring. I consistently supported student recruitment, data capture, and candidate screening while maintaining strong clerical and interpersonal skills.

During roles at SACAP and Culturelligence, I managed candidate outreach and screening, maintained applicant tracking with Trello and Excel, and supported reception and visitor interactions. I have experience tutoring students one-on-one, assessing learning gaps, and simplifying complex material to improve student outcomes.

I bring resourcefulness, time management, multitasking, and solid Microsoft Office proficiency to roles that require strong communication, relationship-building, and organized administrative support. I am passionate about helping others reach their goals and contributing to team success.
