Description

Hi! I'm currently studying Biological Sciences at the University of Bristol, and the course is all about plants, animals and environmental conservation. These topics are the things I'm most passionate about, and I'm really enjoying learning more about these topics as I hope to start my career in this field of conservation, or possibly marine biology. I'm very motivated by this goal, so I'm trying my best every day to learn more about key conservation issues such as invasive species, land use changes, water quality and quantity and climate change.

Being in the outdoors and in nature brings me the most happiness, as I love going for long walks on the beach or in the mountains. I especially love doing this with close friends and family, which is also something I really value because I'm definitely at my happiest when I'm spending quality tie with the people I love. I also really enjoy reading, and I like to always have something creative on the go like drawing, baking or bullet journaling because I find it therapeutic to do something that doesn't matter but that still allows me to express myself in some way.

More details about your skills

I've previously had 3 jobs. I've worked in a Mexican food bar where I helped prepare and serve food to customers. This role also involved cleaning the kitchen and eating area and working on the till and taking orders.

I've worked in a B&B where I cleaned rooms and bathrooms, changing bed sheets and doing the laundry. Occasionally this job involved serving breakfast to the guests as well.

My most recent job was working as a swimming pool lifeguard, which involved the actual lifeguarding of the pool, pool water testing, helping with the front desk, and regularly cleaning the changing areas and bathrooms.

I also have some experience of gardening and DIY as I help my dad and grandparents with their gardens, mainly with weeding, raking, planting seeds and tidying boarders. And I helped with the renovation of my house a few years ago which included painting walls and doors and moving and putting furniture together.
