A cordial Team Member offering exceptional customer interaction and attention to detail. Work well in a team environment and good at prioritizing and completing tasks. Recently was part of a community project called “Project Stratford” which was led and constructed by myself and my project team members, the project was for a study in my project management module which was focused on the revamp of the most neglected classroom in the school (Stratford Primary) in order to improve learning experience for the children. Services in an administrative nature were also effectively provided to the construction company (Sampies Konstruksie) within required deadline when requested.
