- A.I.D.E.MThis project is a short written and directed by me for university. This work aims to explore the influence of the media on women's everyday life and self-esteem. I want to incite informed discussions about this matter and encourage other people to speak about their experiences. I worked with some incredibly inspiring women on this project and even though it is not perfect, I am extremely proud of what we accomplished together.

English TeacherLes Petits Bilingues
- Paris, FranceFull Time
During my time in Paris, I worked part-time with Les Petits Bilingues, running one hour tuition sessions with small groups of up to 4 children aged from 3-10 years old, as well as 3 hour sessions with classes of 12 children aged 3 years. This was both a challenging and rewarding experience in which I had to learn confidence, responsibility, time management, organisation and communication skills - adapting the lesson plans to suits the child's individual needs. There was also an administrative element through this role by preparing and organising lesson plans.

Alumini Scholarship AwardBath Spa University
During my degree at Bath Spa University I was selected for the Alumini Scholarship Scheme, where I was awarded £500 to realise a project of my choice. I decided to put this towards an audio-visual installation piece entitled (Not) Only (A) Girl, which documented my personal experience being the only female in my yeargroup, as a way of shedding light on the issue of the gender imbalance in my field. The piece involved two paintings, a tunnel structure, two 9-minute immersive tracks and a written script of which I was entirely responsible for.
