Chantel James

Receptionist & Sales Assistant
About

I am currently enrolled as a university student at the University of Leicester, pursuing a degree in Psychology with a focus on cognitive neuroscience (BCS) in my final year. Through a variety of experiences, I have honed the skills and abilities essential for personal and professional growth in any environment. My journey includes volunteering roles where I've cared for both younger children and seniors. These opportunities have significantly contributed to my holistic development, equipping me with a well-rounded skill set that transcends across various job domains. As a result, I am confident in my capacity to thrive in diverse situations, which I believe will greatly benefit my personal and professional endeavours.
