Description

I am passionate believer in the ‘work hard and reap the benefits’ lifestyle. This varies from daily tasks, to projects that may completely change the course of my life. As a musician, the hard work I have put in over the years has led to the rewarding aspects of bringing joy to others. As an engineer, the hours I have put into my studies lead me to the satisfaction of completing small, but valuable projects. As a nanny, the love and nurture that I put into caring for children will never fail to reward me.

Having recently graduated from University in England, I am travelling the world to experience anything and everything there is to offer. From working in a summer camp in USA, to ski instructing in Canada, to exploring the beauty and culture of Central America, I will always be open to new adventures. I truly believe that the more you give, the more you get back, and this is reflected in my hard working, opportunistic, and responsible personality.

More details about your skills

Having studied Marine Engineering at Newcastle University, I am hands on and practical when it comes to physical tasks. I also have experience in farming, and spent my youth doing tasks such as fixing bikes and cars, and building whatever my father would deem to be safe (often not) for me to build :). Regardless of the job given to me, I would describe myself as relatively savvy, and always willing to push myself to get the job done.

I have worked various jobs with children for many years, from sports instructing to nannying. I have worked as a swimming teacher and sailing instructor, both for 6 years, and more recently have worked as a private nanny for children aged between 4 months and 5 years. This experience has provided me with a range of life skills, pushing me to have a more responsible, empathetic and positive attitude towards work. I have also worked for a summer camp in the US for 3 years, now having the responsibility to run a campus of 90 children alongside two other leaders.

Previous jobs in the hospitality sector - working as a waiter and bartender - taught me invaluable people skills and an ability to overcome whatever problems are thrown at me.

In my spare time, I am an avid musician, playing the guitar, piano and drums (you'll sometimes catch me with a harmonica on a good day). I'm always open to teaching and sharing my passion for music with others, and love a good campfire tune.

The range of skills I have picked up over the years, through the variety of jobs and situations I have experienced, ensure that I am up for taking on any tasks sent my way. I am confident with hands-on building work, farm work and childcare work.
