Jenny Walker

York, United Kingdom

Model, Actor, Dancer, Photographer, Stylist

My name is Jennifer Walker and at present i am building up a portfolio of my work. I have recently been involved with Spotlight Fashion Models and prepared and styled hair for the fashion show in London. There are some great images from the event which i can present to you at your request. I have been a successful stylist with twenty years experience from owning my own business, teaching, organising fashion shows and most importantly keeping up to date with the ever changing hair styles of today on the shop floor. I'm always keen to update my skills and I have added to a personal continuous professional development file to which i'm always keen to expand. I am always out for a challenge and feel i can gain this in the fast moving environment such as the fashion and Television industry. I hope that you can consider me on a voluntary role as session stylist within your organisation. I can willingly produce a CV, Certificates and References when required.

Profile
I consider myself to be a highly motivated achiever who has made a significant contribution to the roles I have held to date. I have excellent organisational skills, which I feel were demonstrated by my ability to teach and assess, run a busy salon whilst undertaking my Certificate of education and teaching at Yorkshire Coast College. I taught at Yorkshire Coast College for 6 years. I have also worked as an assessor for Darlington College.

My qualifications have enabled me to teach and assess students at various levels and I have a full and current CPD. I currently am self-employed 2 days in a busy town centre salon, therefore giving me up to date industry experience every week.

I have proved myself to be a skilled teacher achieving Grade 2 lesson observations, by showing great differentiation in the classroom. I can deliver theory and practical sessions; including demonstrations with a variety of resources making sure individual needs are met. I have IT skills and experience including power points, online testing and smart board presentations. I am a competent public speaker, a capability that I utilised in my teaching role which has been enhanced through presentation skills and teacher training.

My networking ability and relationship with salon owners are second to none and have ultimately led to me being responsible for fundraising events with Debenhams overseeing the organisation of the fashion show and compare to a number of projects throughout the Yorkshire region on behalf of Zulu, Fuzion and Yorkshire Coast College.

I have currently participated in London Fashion Shows and have some images at your request. I styled Miss Teen Englands hair and some other a list names.

I am hardworking, versatile and equally adept working either on my own or alongside others. Furthermore, I have consistently proved that I am more than capable of implementing a project or task swiftly.
