I am a diligent care assistant with skills and training mandated by CQC I have one year of experience working within the Uk which includes supporting service users with mental health, dementia, learning disabilities, recovering from alcohol and drug abuse, complex needs, and challenging behaviour. I am a recent postgraduate student from Brunel and I have passed with a distinction. Currently, I am looking for an experience in teaching. My experience in mental health and my academic background make me a good fit for a role that combines teaching and mental health. My long-term aspiration is to opt for a teaching/academic career.

I am able to provide compassionate, personalised, attentive care and companionship to vulnerable adults and children. I tailor my caregiving services to cater to any sort of care assistance. Learning environment makes me most productive and happy. I am able to work flexible working hours since I do not have any family commitments and I would bring with me a caring, compassionate and hardworking nature that would benefit any company I work with. I adhere to strong values of respect, integrity and honesty in the work I do. Making the service users most supported by me gives me a satisfaction of a job well done. I also come with a three-year experience of working in customer services within the tech industry which helped me develop the skill of multi-tasking and managing work under extreme pressure. This experience however also made me realise that I am a people person and would work in social care, education or pursue a career involving social sciences.

I am looking to work for a company that could further support my progression and is willing to support me to further enhance my skills. It is working in the area of social care that I felt the most purposeful. Providing care brings out the best in me and gives me inner satisfaction.

I have recently passed my LLM in International Commercial Law from Brunel with a distinction. I maintained a high academic record with straight A pluses in my last semester and B pluses in my first. I am a person that constantly strives for improvement and is willing to put in all the hard work required to achieve that. Acquiring a masters in International Commercial Law strengthened my academic legal knowledge pertaining to Financial and Banking regulation, Transnational law, Dispute resolution, Arbitration, Business regulation and Trade law. It has also given me a firm grasp of international law. The research papers that I was really praised for and enjoyed writing were on arbitration and IT law, hence problem-solving and research are my forte.

Currently, I am looking for an experience that helps me enhance my professional legal skills in line with my educational background, particularly inclusive of research, analyzing, preparing legal documents, and day-to-day administrative work. I have a tremendous passion for research which enabled me to have a distinction in my thesis and good grades in research papers. I researched and analyzed over two hundred sources to deduce that mainstream economics could not be relied upon to enforce liberal trade policies especially when they were counter to human rights norms within countries.

You will find in me a hardworking, adaptable and person that has a passion for learning law and a zest for learning new skills. I am not afraid to embark on new challenges and thrive in busy work environments. This is also due to the transferrable skills I developed working in a busy call center environment with intense work pressures. I also have experience from administrative jobs and I am not afraid to take on new roles. Working in the tech industry has also helped me gain technical skills. Being a quick learner, I would learn the inside out of the functionings of software and then help the business onboard new clients. Even though I am a lawyer and not an IT expert I could adjust in such work settings because I like taking on new challenges and roles. Multitasking comes naturally to me and I have come across people from all walks of life while working in customer services. This is an experience that I will bring with me specifically when dealing with clients. I have gained experience through working in different sectors whilst keeping the academic pursuit as an aim. I would thrive in a working environment that includes mentorship and provides me with learning opportunities that would help me progress my career in law. After completing my LLB (Hons) from the University of London in 2018, I embarked upon working pro bono for eight months in district courts in Pakistan which should demonstrate my compassionate nature, I had the drive to help women in a patriarchal society where they could not afford legal representation and were subject to systemic discrimination as well. Furthermore, this also helped me gain experience working in Human rights, Family law, and particularly Muslim law. You will find in me a person that never gives up and embraces all challenges, hard work, and constant improvements that come along. I am able to dedicate long flexible hours as I do not have any family commitments and I want to pursue the career I am passionate about. I would welcome any experience that helps me take a step forward toward my career progression.
