About me

I am a hardworking and committed BA (Hons) Photography graduate from the University

for the Creative Arts, Farnham, Surrey, wishing to employ my creative skills in a business environment.

I am interested in a securing a position within a retail/commercial environment. To support my studies I have gained voluntary and part time experience working in a variety of retail positions, a local costume & designer jewellery shop, a design led gift store, a fast paced high street coffee shop- Costa Coffee and a florist. Together with these retail positions I have also gained experience working in a sales environment and as an administrator/photographer in a busy veterinary practice.

The above positions have required me to be customer focused and visually aware with attention to reflecting the company brand. I have needed to work as part of a team, where communication is really important in a hectic environment. At times I have needed to use my own initiative and creativity to work alone but also prove I can work to guidelines laid down by my employer. I have needed to be aware of the latest trends and fashions, use my creativity to produce visual work of a high standard, be organized, have an eye for detail and work to deadlines for my photography degree and I have applied these to the work place.
