Summary

Diverse professional with the ability to make decisions, work independently, think critically, coordinate multiple projects, and resolve problems. Experienced in verbal communication; the ability to work collaboratively with team members and the commitment to maintaining the highest standards of professionalism and excellence in all areas.

Any date gaps in my CV are a result of time off to focus on motherhood. First, during the first few years of my son and daughter's lives, and then recently, with the move from South Africa to Belgium, I decided to stay at home to assist with the transition of my children to the new country and language requirements.
