Education
    Music and Media Management
     - 
    I graduated with a 2:1, and my course modules included; managing creative people and processes, business planning, web design, production to retail, managing a music project, music law, as well as a 10,000 word dissertation. The topic of my dissertation was the examination of masculine representation in music video, and how it effects consumer behaviour, this required market research to yield consumer opinions, and also compiling third party research in order to create and support arguments or theories. In 2014, the music related courses travelled to Berlin and assisted in the organisation and production of an international music show, my role was assistant stage manager. Consequently I won an award for my events assistance at the 2014 MMM/POM awards.
