Bio
ELMIRA THACKER
I have known Kate Penny since August 2014 when she joined STB Ltd as a paid intern for a month. Following her successful internship where Kate demonstrated her ability to work hard, bring new ideas and get along with people from different backgrounds, she was offered a full time position at STB Ltd. Kate always tries to approach new tasks with an open mind and does her utmost to deliver the best service. Kate has a warm and friendly personality, a good sense of humour and a confident nature. I wish Kate all the very best in her future career.
