About Adalaina Gouws :

Hello,

Are you in need of a highly skilled and versatile professional to handle various critical tasks with precision and expertise?

Allow me to introduce myself—I am Adalaina, a proud multi-potentialite with a unique blend of legal logic, critical thinking skills, and a wealth of experience spanning diverse fields including Hairdressing, Salon Management, Fitness Instruction, Administrative function, Bookkeeping including my Pastel qualifications, the list is not exhaustive.

Together with 20 years of experience in Hairdressing and Salon Management, and 18 years of self-employment therein, along with 6 years as a Personal Trainer, Fitness Instructor, diet and nutrition specialist, and life-coaching, combined with  4 years in the Creative Arts namely, Photography, Graphic Design, statue restorations, carpentry and kitchen renovations and then my endless amount of experience of 19 years in the corporate world, I do bring a wide array, rich and broadly diverse tapestry of qualifications, work experience and interpersonal skills to the role I'm placed in.

My ultimate desire and “method to my madness” is to be an integral part of the community. With the current trends and ever growing technological development within the working environment, my desire is learn what ever may come my way and to contribute positively to society by use of my strategically designed Scope of Practises working in synergy.

I am extremely self driven by a deep passion to utilize my skill in a meaningful and inspirational manner and hope to motivate my peers to love what they do.

I strive to find purpose in every task I undertake and am dedicated to delivering exceptional results that make a massive difference, I would love for this to work well in collaboration and also to learn new and exciting skills I have not yet been introduced yet. I have the eagerness to learn anything I could possibly find provided I have the most patient teacher and mentor assigned to me.

Working as a legal secretary, conveyancing secretary, legal administrator, or legal assistant overall aligns perfectly with my goals and aspirations, and I am committed to excelling in this role to complete my BCOM Law degree. There is nothing like a challenge that gets me fired up and moving forward as problem solving, and legal research to build an effective case is where I shine my best shades and beautiful spectrum of colours.

While the job search process can be arduous and exhaustive for some, for me, it's doable. After being self-employed for a while, I have chosen to embrace it wholeheartedly. There is no longer room for growth within my own organisation, and I've grown tired of being my own employer. It is my intention to secure full-time employment before my 38th birthday, and in doing so, I will be able to leverage my skills, knowledge, and experience to their fullest potential.

As I continue on this journey, the role of an active job seeker remains at the forefront of my priorities. "You make it your job to find and secure a job" is how both myself and my brother were raised. I am ready to take the necessary action, get myself out there, seize opportunities, try new things and demonstrate my unwavering commitment to excellence in all that I do to and to the best of my ability with passion to find the right employer that matches my energetic nature.

If you are seeking a hard-working, fast learning, knowledge-seeking, self-determined, success-driven, and dedicated professional with a diverse skill set and a strong work ethic, look no further. I am equipped to handle a wide range of responsibilities, complete my tasks on time and able to assist you with your work if need be.

I could he the Personal assistant without the "AI" label attached to it as well as Office Support, Office Manager, Office Administrator,  Receptionist or Girl Friday. I excel in most, if not all and uphold the brand and companies name up high. My exceptional communication skills, along side my confidence in speaking with the public or clients, whether in person, telephonically, or written communication, remains effective and professional at all times. My typing speed is +-120 w/pm, and accuracy in grammar, spelling, and punctuation will always be checked and double-checked before sending any correspondence through.

My organizational skills, paired with my commitment to accuracy and efficiency where I take attention to detail very seriously, makes me an ideal candidate for your team within your orginasation, and you won't regret placing me in that role.

Reach out to me today to explore how I can add value to your organization and contribute to your brands success. I am excited about the possibility of working with you and making a positive impact through my work.

Thank you for considering me, and with that being said, let us connect to collaborate to achieve success by working in synergy. I believe we could work well together in unison.

Best regards,
Adalaina
