JOB DESCRIPTION

WEEKEND Personal Assistant

A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF

I am a 20-year-old female living with my family in area of Cowbridge with our dog called Ruby and my leopard Gecko called Henry. I love keeping things neat and tidy this helps me keep my OCD in balance. I love word searches and puzzles and can complete a puzzle in 2 days. I love the theatre and musicals and absolutely love animals. I have Coffin-Siris syndrome, which is a genetic condition that causes variable degrees of moderate learning disabilities and developmental delays, which can affect my motor skills. I have a good sense of humour which my mum describes as quite dry, I have selective mutism, which is an anxiety disorder where a person is unable to speak in certain social situations, however I do acknowledge by nodding and once a relationship is formed I can open up and build my confidence. I am very easy going person and generally quite relaxed, unless there is something I do not want to do and then I will just walk away. I prefer sticking to a plan, as I am quite headstrong and I can get anxious if things change without much notice.
