      Activities and Societies: I actively participated in athletics, showcasing my talent at county competitions with consistent success, particularly excelling in the 100m sprint. Additionally, I joined the drama club and performed in a couple whole school performances. Furthermore, I contributed to our school's "Gym and Dance" show's, engaging in student-led performances.

      Sept 2018 - Aug 2019
      Waitress

      After working at my sister's clubhouse occasionally for some pocket money, I wanted to start looking for my own job and independence. I found my first job in my local small pub in Chorleywood. I engaged in a variety of basic responsibilities that included, glass and plate collection, taking orders, seating guests and was always on my toes for anyone needing any help. I feel this is where I started to understand the importance of customer service and this really developed my confidence.
