More details about your skills

My skills include mathematical, statistical and economical analysis - skills I gained over years of studying at a university in my hometown of Stellenbosch, South Africa. I am also experienced in social media marketing, having done an internship in this field. I am experienced and extremely capable in various manual labour tasks, especially those which require organisational and logistical skills. This is the area I have been working in ever since I've been in Berlin (from February 2025). I also worked for a river rafting company in 2024, as a outdoor trip guide. These experiences have involved teamwork, leadership skills, customer service, and extensive, often arduous, manual labour.
I am also a passionate songwriter and musician, having written and played music all my life. Feel free to have a look at my instagram page related to my music at https://www.instagram.com/tavish_baines/.
