Summary

I am a biomedical science graduate from the University of Surrey, searching for a role in a clinical-based environment. I took on the challenge of self-learning Maths A level in my spare time alongside my college course as well as volunteering in a care home. I have experience in multiple laboratory settings, multiple lifeguarding jobs and voluntary care home roles. I have learned to work with customers of all ages and abilities as well as dealing with complaints and requests.
