About me

I am a highly motivated, hardworking, versatile and adaptable individual. I am fluent in German and English and excellent in French. I am an experienced team player with leadership skills and a quick learner with the ambition to learn new things.

I have accomplished design and publishing orientated computer skills and am generally IT literate. I have also grown up and worked in a hotel/restaurant environment in

Switzerland, which has given me a lot of very good hospitality experience. Throughout my career as a Designer, in sales, hospitality and the metropolitan police, I have gained a lot of useful and diverse experience in customer service and face-to-face liaisons.

I really enjoy working with people and have a 'can-do' attitude, which means I will be dedicated to solving any problem and to achieve the best possible solution.
