About Gabriel May:

Thank you for taking the time to read my application. I am a hard-working person who has a determined mind set and is very focussed. I get on with people, thus being able to work well in groups with excellent communication. I do as well, have no issues in working on my own where I can work with little supervision.

I have excellent customer service skills with a strong ability to liaise with various people. I have worked in many different roles and was fortunate enough to complete my master’s in journalism in 2009. I am creative, articulate and work well within deadlines and timeframes.

I also have great computer skills, which include being proficient at using Microsoft Office programmes, including Office and Excel. 

If you have any questions or queries, please reach out to me using my contact details above.
