I am David Docherty, I am an enthusiastic individual I approach tasks with results in mind. I am well organised and I can work well as part of a team or on my own. I like completing things on time, and making sure that I keep learning from experience to do things correctly and in a good time scale. I was in America for 3 years on a golf scholarship, whilst being there I adapted to working within a team of numerous cultural backgrounds and as an individual. I like to be able to help people in any way I can. I am friendly, and easy to get along with. I also have the skills, mental ability and correct motivation to go on and take lead of a situation if necessary. I play a lot of golf although I am mentally driven to achieve a high standard of work, so that I am always working and doing the best I can possible. I did attend a college called Elmwood in Fife, Scotland for Golf Coaching but was cut short due to my scholarship in America.
