Kia Ora! Ko Hayley Linton tōku ingoa.

I love two things in life. Captivating people and a hearty good steak. 

And with that I welcome you to grab a “sparkling water”, sit back and enjoy this one of a kind three course meal that tells you a bit about me!

This very exquisite menu should leave you wanting to thank the chef and undo the top button of the jeans as you sit full and content with your choice of meal…

*so ur welcome in advance*

Entree - otherwise known as some of my aspirations

• I aspire to be a voice that makes a difference, one that will be heard and one that becomes known by sharing authentic stories of real people and issues.
• Journalism is a way for me to raise awareness and prompt people to take action and my passion for storytelling allows me to dig deeper to really showcase a fair and balanced story.
• I have a drive to prove myself to me, to fulfil that thought that this small town girl can actually do this. I'm capable, curious and enthusiastic enough to get the job done.

Mains - which are my skills

• I have a strong work ethic, and pride myself on a high level of professionalism.
• I thrive in leadership roles, as well as working with others in a team. My strengths include being an honest, clear communicator, that is hard working and reliable. 
• I enjoy and feel confident in the journalist role, as to, behind the camera, editing and post-production which makes me an asset to any team.

Desserts - are my “cravings”... for the future

• I’m seeking a creative work environment where everyday is different, somewhere I can keep learning and challenge myself.
• I want to contribute to the discovery of the truth, provide a forum for diverse views, and foster a more informed and engaged society.
• I like both hard hitting journalism and lighthearted stories, a pun goes a long way sometimes… having an environment that fosters both is something I'm actively looking for!

I feel as if these qualities are the perfect recipe for any newsroom…                     *chefs kiss*

If you have any concerns or dietary requirements please don't hesitate to ask. I’d be more than happy to accommodate:) I look forward to meeting you!
