Creative CV

Initial content for my CV:

Do I write in third person? A lot of people do but I find it a little strange and forced. How do I write something good about myself when my biggest strength is self-deprecating?

Profile:

I am an Illustrator from Leeds, an avid tea drinker and animal enthusiast you can find me hidden in coffee shops writing or drawing, wearing stripes. I volunteer at Hope Pastures Horse and Donkey Sanctuary, the driving force behind my interest in fundraising and helping others, I give any help and resources I can to those four legged friends that need it. 
I dream about my work being in books and magazines, and someday being able to live on a farm surrounded by nature and inspiration.
