About Candidate

I am open to any new learning opportunities that will enable me to meet the essential criteria for a scientific research role or other entry-level careers. I have taken a long break, but I am actively searching for work or any programs that will enable me to upskill myself. I am highly interested in learning more about the use of  AI, as well as being given a chance to pursue leadership and management roles. I have also relevant experience in customer service due to the various retail positions I have worked in. I look forward to hearing from and meeting you if you have any advice or work opportunities for me.

Thanks, Leia
