About me
I am a very confident communicator and find it easy to talk with both members of the public and staff at all levels. I find this is a key skill that I have been able to use and that would help me boost customer service in any role I may be given.I have set up and run various live band performances with regard to the sound production, set up of equipment and organisation of guest lists. I have also played live as part of a metal band as their drummer. When setting up these events it is vital that you are able to communicate effectively and also be prepared to take advice and guidance for how best to use each venue in order that the audience and performers are satisfied with the service you are providing. I am a hard working and independent worker yet find it easy to integrate well into a team. I make it my goal to complete tasks given to me to a high standard and at a good pace which makes team work a lot smoother for all. I am extremely dedicated to any challenge I undertake, this can be seen through the time I take out to learn instruments in my spare time. I play 2 hours a day and I have a lot of skills in music having experience in making my own music, mixing live bands and recording music through software on a computer. I have a huge amount of IT skills that could assist me in many roles, but essentially I am willing to learn new things and give 100% to whatever task I am given.Additional skills:
I am a very dedicated musician and always find time to play and listen to music. I have played many instruments over the past 6 years including drums, bass guitar, acoustic guitar, keyboard and more whilst being involved in a lot of band projects and just enjoying the pleasure of experiencing new sounds. Music is something that is very important to me and I have been studying recording and mixing for a long time to increase my knowledge and ability in every aspect of the industry both with live bands, video production and solo artists.

Additional information:
I am looking for a future in employment, having completed my GCSE and A level studies, I now wish to gain experience and use my knowledge and practical ability to enhance my life whilst offering enthusiasm and drive to add something to any company that I work for. I am a very quick learner and do not have to be shown twice how to complete a task. I pick up things when they are shown to me and they are not forgotten. My passion is to follow my ultimate interest which is music, entertainment and making a difference to people's enjoyment of life. Just to add a smile to someone's day can make a big impact. My aim is to use my outgoing personality, educational knowledge, drive and enthusiasm to move forward to the next stage of my life experiences.
