Fareedah Alli-Balogun

My name is Fareedah Ayomide Alli-Balogun. I am 18 years old and I’m an enthusiastic and hard-working student at the University of Saskatchewan. I am adventurous and always willing to learn new things. I am effective team player and I have good listening skills. I worked as a receptionist/cashier in Excellincoln photography for a few months, I worked as a cashier at Taiwo Supermarket, and I was also a social media manager at the Kinship Walkers Club. With these experiences, I was able to develop skills such as good time management skills, good organizational skills, teamwork skills, leadership skills, good communication skills and many others. I recently completed the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme in Greensprings School, and I was also awarded scholarship in the University of Saskatchewan.
