A total of six weeks of work experience was undertaken from the 7th of December 2015 to the 29th of January 2016 at Austell Laboratories (Pty) Ltd. In Crown Mines, Johannesburg. Work was assigned in three different departments, namely: research; warehousing; marketing and sales, of which two weeks was spent in each discipline.

Career Goals

I have always had a strong passion for optimizing all aspects of my life - I always seek to get the most value out. In part, this is why I decided to study Industrial engineering. I wish to pursue a career that presents such opportunities to optimize, and improve the efficiency of any respective processes. I enjoy problem solving and I have a keen interest in the world of wealth management. I believe that I can add value, regardless of the context. I am ambitious and therefore would like to gradually advance into higher management positions if the opportunities do present themselves. I would be humbled by the opportunity to begin my journey with you.
