Description

I am an outgoing and motivated University student with a passion for travelling. I love art, music, sport, education and people. My motivation is the connections and communities I get to create by stepping out of my comfort zone and stepping in to help those around me. I am studying to be a journalist, but want to take a semester off to get some real world experience and guidance.

Hard work drives me to be a better person, adventure and the outdoors are always calling to me- I love to hike, swim and try new skills, foods and even languages! I have training in Yoga instruction and Social Media Management. I also have about 5 years of various hospitality work from real estate reception, bartending and waitressing. I recently documented a 6 week road-trip across Australia!

Foremost, I love learning, I take in new knowledge and practices very quickly. As long as I can remember, I have helped out on farm properties and looked after younger kids, as well as over 5 years of experience in hospitality. I am an excellent writer, drawer and painter. I love to sing, play piano and guitar, witing songs and making music is a great outlet for all my feelings. I am also very active, I have played so many different sports throughout my life, I love running, hiking and swimming. Helping out around the house comes naturally, I like an orderly environment with high energy and happy vibes. I am also proficient in media and technology.
