Curijo embraces a two-way learning philosophy, acknowledging the importance and value of both Indigenous knowledge and Western-ways of thinking.

Bar Supervisor
-
Mar 2019 - Sep 2020
Prior to the pandemic, I worked in the role of bar supervisor on the busy Friday and Saturday nights and lead a small team. The role altered due to the smaller capacity and staff during COVID-19, so I often ran the whole B Lucky venue alone while the managers and other staff were working in the Holey Moley side of the venue.

Volunteer Content Creator and Website Developer
-
Oct 2018 - Nov 2018
While travelling in Guatemala, I spent a month volunteering for this cooperative. We helped empower Mayan women through their weaving, by ensuring they were receiving a fair wage for their hard work. My role was as a website design/developer and content creator for the cooperative’s website, which required thorough research to create content on Mayan traditions, the history of Guatemala, weaving and dyeing processes and the work of the cooperative. During this time I undertook Spanish lessons so I could communicate effectively with the incredible directors. I often led small tour groups of international Spanish students and various tourists around the shop, educating them on everything I had researched, from Guatemala’s civil war to the various Mayan symbology.

Mathematics Tutor
-
Jul 2016 - Jun 2018
Working as a tutor required brilliant communication skills between myself and both the student and parents. I had to establish a safe space for learning and facilitate teamwork to work with each students’ learning style. Weekly preparation was vital to ensuring the student was gaining the most from a session. Working as a tutor required brilliant communication skills between myself and both the student and parents.

Advancement Student Caller
-
Jul 2017 - Jul 2017
This was a short-term role for the duration of the July University Holidays, 2017. The role of an Advancement Student Caller was to reconnect graduates with the university by building a rapport through phone conversations. I utilised my sales skills to encourage philanthropic and financial support for the Learning and Development Scholarships. It was essential to adhere to the legislation surrounding fundraising approaches. I contributed towards the team effort and provided support and advice to team members who were struggling to reach their targets. Show less
