I have over 10 years of experience in customer service both customer-facing and managerial level , as well as being highly skilled in business loss prevention such as security, risk assessment , data analysis and crisis management. I have managed and led a successful team of staff in the fitness sector and supported young students with diverse needs with wellbeing plans to increase academic engagement and achievement.

I am making a career transition into the Tech world, coming from my previous roles in the recruitment , fitness and hospitality industry mainly because i find it incredibly exciting.
