OUGD502: Content for my CV

I have finally managed to gather relevant content to go on my CV. I have found writing the 'about me' incredibly difficult to do as I am not one to 'show off/boast' and I do not want to come across big-headed! I showed my friends and family all the details to proof read and whether they thought it was okay... I got the okay! 

About Me:

Hello! I am Vanessa, a young & ambitious second year design student studying at Leeds College of Art. I strive to develop innovative and authentic ideas with creative solutions that will make an impact. I enjoy working collaboratively as a team in a busy studio environment. I am a quick learner and enjoy taking on new projects, challenges and responsibilities. Hard work, and deadlines does not faze me and I love to get involved in any project. My self-motivated and friendly nature means that I am a hard working, yet an enjoyable and relaxed person to work with.
