"I've decided something: Commercial things really do stink.

As soon as it becomes commercial for a mass market it really stinks."

About Me

 

I am a hardworking, enthuastic individual who is always developing skills old and new. I have the ability to work as an individual or as part of a team. I also have skills ranging in team/individualwork, communication and problem solving. I also work well under pressure being able to meet deadlines in advanced and also, unexpected deadlines. I can take critisim very well and if I don't agree with something, I will view both sides and give my opinion in a justified manner to show all points both positive and negative.

 

I graduated University in the Summer of 2008 with a BSc Hons in Multimedia Systems. During my time in University, I also undertook a year in industry. That year in industry saw me working as a Graphics Marking Assistant for a construction company. The year allowed me to experience what it was like to be in a working environment as well as help me decide what I would like to do once I had completed my University years.

 

I can also work within a deadline, managing my time efficently so that everything can get done. Another thing which I think is important is my ability to work independently or as part of a team. I realise that in any working environment I will be expected to work with no support and I deal with that to the best of my ability, using the available resources around me.
