Summary

I am an industrious, motivated, and highly productive individual with a BSc (Hons.) in Applied Social Sciences specializing in Criminology. Over the years, I have developed a diverse set of skills and qualities that I believe will add value to your company. My work experience as a cashier has enhanced my interpersonal skills and adaptability, enabling me to thrive in dynamic environments. I excel in teamwork and collaboration, ensuring efficient service delivery, and I am proficient in Microsoft Office, well-equipped to handle administrative tasks with precision. Additionally, I am a strong communicator and supportive collaborator, with problem-solving capabilities that allow me to take ownership of challenges. During my internship at the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family Welfare, I conducted research on gender-based violence and prepared PowerPoint presentations on the topic. I assisted in drafting project proposals and contributed to designing a monument proposal for victims of gender-based violence. I also attended and organized workshops, fostering teamwork through open communication and leadership, while developing other administrative skills. Currently, as a Paralegal Executive, I provide legal and administrative support, assisting with case preparation, legal research, and drafting legal documents. My role has further strengthened my analytical skills, attention to detail, and ability to work efficiently under pressure in a fast-paced legal environment. I am eager to continue expanding my expertise and see this position as an opportunity to work alongside like-minded professionals striving for excellence.
