Work experience:
I was involved in a project to build a pergola for an elderly peoples home, it was really rewarding seeing all the residents faces light up when a group of five students and I delivered the finished pergola to the home. Helping the community was very satisfying and has made me closer to many of my peers
Volunteer experience:
During the summer holidays I was involved in a summer activities week with the organisation YG (based in Gloucester) this meant that myself and a group of friends met other people our age that didn’t have the greatest life and showed them how to have fun without getting into trouble. I found it rewarding to help others. This experience has not only given me new friends but has also helped me improve my people skills. References: Available on request.
My skills include being a very confident person who is able to interact with all types of people and get great joy from helping others (as you can see from my volunteer/work experience). I am organised and punctual person who can be calm and professional in any given situation. My eagerness to learn and be the best at new things means I am the person most suitable for this job. Education: I’m currently studying photography at Gloucestershire College. Photography is definitely something I want to be involved in as I have great passion for it. I’m studying fashion and photography because I want to work in the fashion and photography industry, as it’s something I’ve always wanted to do. I prefer to shoot in Black and white because it gives me the freedom I need in many of my photos to express the actual subject without color interrupting and it is giving me more graphical viewpoints in a way that color can’t. My career goals are to become a well known fashion photographer and work alongside majour brands such as vogue and Elle.
