About

I am a recent Masters’ graduate with fresh administrative, recruiting, and teaching experience. Notably, I have taught technical writing and essay writing to undergraduate students, which has contributed to my exemplary understanding and practice of written and oral English. Most recently I have been developing my marketing and recruiting skills in a recruiter and interviewer role, screening candidates and identifying those well-suited to the positions on offer. In this role I was able to use my communication skills to their fullest, speaking face-to-face with candidates as to assess their eligibility and qualifications. Previous teaching and coaching experience has also allowed me to become an effective and natural presenter to both small and large groups, and I am able to facilitate and guide seminars, orientations and trainings with ease. With strong time-management and organizational skills, I have been able to maintain full-time employment during and after the five years in which I completed two academic degrees.
