About Me

I am an independent individual, eager to learn and evolve. I am currently in my second year of studies at Cardiff Metropolitan University working towards a BA in Business Management. I have excellent IT skills and am the go-to person amongst my peers for any troubleshooting or IT implementation. I am orderly, punctual and a great team player but also have the skills to work independently. I always seek to achieve a high standard in whatever I undertake and I have the maturity to know where and when I can improve myself.

Technical Experience

●  At my recommendation, upgraded & maintained the Point-of-Sale equipment at Narberth RFC from outdated, manual registers to a cloud-based digital system. I continue to support this technology remotely since I have now moved away to further my education. This has improved the efficiency of service during peak times and has also simplified the reconciling of sales and accounts, a task that used to be very labour intensive. The new system also provides excellent analytical datarelated to sales patterns that was not previously available. 

●  Occasional general IT support for a primary school, e.g. networking infrastructure, setting up new technology in compliance with the protocols provided by the local authority, interactive whiteboards, sound systems, overhead projectors, etc.

●  Digitised the primary school library resources for access during the pandemic

●  Created informational website for a local non-profit organisation – The Living Memory Group


Event Support

●  Designed and built photo booths for various events

●  Set up and managed music equipment at multiple events at Narberth RFC


Additional Experience
