About Tarren Petersen:

I am a Bachelor of Business Administration Graduate (BBA Degree), with a Marketing and Public Relations major. My successes include successful sales drives as trainee manager at OK Minimark, as well as the implementation of my idea/proposal to standardise processes and procedures within two top stores in Absolute Pets with a view of implementation in other stores. I’ve also launched my own clothing brand in 2020. My current work experience together with my entrepreneurial experience has allowed me to develop critical skills which have been noted below. I am a highly driven individual, who is not only excelling in my career but has also excelled in sport and in my studies. I am highly agile, innovative, creative, a team player, a great leader and can work independently among other skills. I strongly believe that if you want to be a success you should not pursue success but rather seek to become a person of value and success will naturally follow with consistency and hard work.
