Several Local and International sites

• Bar person/ Server/ Winery sales

  • Nov 2004 - Oct 2018

  Over the years I have continued to return to the Hospitality environment. I enjoy challenging myself to explore different roles, as well as alternative areas within the industry. I feel this approach motivates my continuing professional development within healthcare/human behaviour and has given me a unique understanding and passion for customer/patient focused roles. These experiences have also taught me that I have an invested interest in viticulture, viniculture, travel and behavioural psychology, which has only nourished my passion for hospitality and healthcare alike. The knowledge I have gained from these customer service & agricultural roles has improved my nursing practice and holistic understanding of healthcare. It is humbling, as well as interesting and has taught me to exercise patience and understanding in a way that the stressors of nursing did not allow. It has sparked my interest in human behaviour, built my interpersonal skills and has just, so beautifully, fuelled my passion for healthcare and education. Show less
