About me
Second year student at The University of Leeds studying Politics and Social Policy. After spending more time attending career related talks and events than actually on my degree, I have been independently pursuing my passions that I would like to turn into a career. For the past year, I have been writing for the TwelfthMan in a freelance journalist position with my pieces published in the Champions Journal online and in-print. Alongside this, I am developing my blog and actively practicing my writing. Currently, I am looking for internships during a year in industry next year.

    Customer Sales AdvisorWhittard of Chelsea
    Leeds, United KingdomPart Time
    Initially joining in a seasonal role, I was primarily tasked with advising customers by providing recommendations on a variety of products. Since then, to reflect my successes in the role, I have been made a permanent member of the team and my responsibilities have been expanded. This includes independently opening and organising the store, handling the safe, till floats and banking. The experience working here has helped to develop my time management, organisational skills and showed my diligent attitude.
