  • More details about your skills

    For my creative side, I'm passionate about art and am skilled in many practices such as sketching, painting, photography and videography. Through my course I have experience in design projects involving CAD, high fidelity prototyping and digital softwares such as Adobe Suite. I'm also very musical, as I have a Secondaire Supérieure II certificate from the Conservatoire de Montreux in Switzerland.

    I have job experience as a waitress and a cleaner and work in horse stables, therefore I am not afraid of hard manual work and long hours. I have a First Aid certificate from Samaritains Vaud (CH) as well as a training certificate for child minding and babysitting from the Swiss Red Cross. I'm also involved in volunteering programs at home and at university which has given me the opportunity to participate in many projects involving supporting local primary schools, animal rehabilitation centres and retirement homes. These projects thoroughly developed my team working skills.

    I'm a fast learner and adapt quickly to new environments, therefore I'm looking forward to taking on any challenge or project that is thrown my way during my Workaway experience!
