Education
BA(Hons) Marketing Management, 2:1
- Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom
As of July 2017, I have graduated from Northumbria University with a 2:1 in BA (Hons) Marketing Management. Over three years, I frequently worked in small groups to carry out projects. I have completed a variety of market research reports that involve qualitative and quantitative data collection which has provided me with practical experience of developing marketing plans for companies in case study forms. I regularly delivered presentations individually and in groups to demonstrate research that has been undertaken.
Graphic Communication
- Stockport, United Kingdom
I worked in various areas of study such as illustration, packaging design and design for print. This course required me to be aware of the intended audience which prepared me for my studies at university. I developed the ability to respond to an issue, concept or idea and worked to a brief or answered a need in a chosen area as mentioned. This helped me to appreciate the relationship of form and function and also the constraints of working to a brief.
