About me
A University of Nottingham graduate, awarded a 2:1 in American and Canadian, Literature, History and Culture (with international study abroad), Currently living in London. I consider myself to be hard working, forward thinking and a good communicator, something that I have demonstrated through working in the hospitality industry. More importantly, I am experienced at working under pressure in a fast paced environment and it is in these situations that my organisational skills and creative thinking come to the fore. I have always been interested in the media and have got involved through my work experience. I recently completed a Graduate internship with Midas Public Relations where I developed the skills needed to work in this industry. I have also worked, as a runner with production company Zeppotron. It is through these experiences that I have cemented my desire to pursue a career in creative and marketing industries.
