  • More details about your skills

    I am a young, hard-working man nearing his final year of a degree in International Business.

    I took a gap year after high school, where in I learnt a wide variety of practical tools at a learning programme called Quest Africa. These included:

    - Woodwork
    - Plumming and Electrics
    - Farming
    - Nature guiding
    - Mapwork

    At university I have become financially literate, enjoying courses such as Financial Manangment, Accounting, Economics and Mercantile Law.

    I have also learnt invaluable non-academic skills throughout my time set at university, such as organisation, time management, and various leadership skills through many projects I have been involved in on campus.

    I picked up language classes as part of my degree and have studied French as well as German.

    All together, this makes me a well-rounded individual, capable of handling an array of tasks required.
