Summary

I am a hard worker and I always deliver my best, even in dire situations. I am capable of working under pressure but flourish much better when I am at ease. I enjoy organizing documents, spaces and working with numbers. I am a natural team player because of my constant participation in team sports. This has allowed me to grow my communication and leadership skills and qualities intensely. I enjoy working and socializing with people from all walks of life and I am always keen on learning new skills and abilities.

Work History

Assistant

Gaji Accountants Cc
Queenstown
12.2018 - 01.2023

My very short, yet valuable experience at Gaji Accountants gave me a realistic and theoretical view of the day to day occurrences of an accounting firm. This experience helped me realize how deep my love and passion for accounting is, while gaining and improving my skills. The hours were extremely long as it was the end of the year therefore clients books needed to be closed off and audited. The paper work was intense and so was the coffee making. Being an assistant thought me so many things. My time at Gaji Accountants proved to me the many sacrifices one makes for their job and I am willing to make them for your business too. My computer skills have become much more enhanced and I am better equipped now.

Reading

I enjoy readying and things that have to do with art a lot. Any type of art interests me a lot whether it be music, visual or written and I try to expand myself in each all the time.I have read a lot of books and I don't necessarily have a favorite one because each one has given me a different experience and something to take from so it is difficult to choose just one or even two. I enjoyed a book that I recently read by Ashraf Kagee, By the Fading Light because it teaches about coming of age and the experiences and the realization of it. Although the book is timed during the apartheid times, I still found it relatable and relevant. This book interested me a lot because I felt like I was a part of the story and it had me thinking of my own coming of age story and the slow and rapid removal of innocence as one comes to see the world for what it really is.
