Overview
A Business Management graduate from Winchester University, where I learnt the importance of linking business activities with sustainability. My dissertation focused on the influence of Sovereign Wealth Funds on climate change action through a sustainable and ethical lens.
I have worked in local government, hotels abroad, and in healthcare. Therefore, I have gained a wide range of skills, including extensive customer services.
My role at Exeter is to collaborate with people to create initiatives and projects to support Geography students with their university experience and success.
Current projects and achievements:
- Leading the reintroduction of a peer mentor scheme to support students during their time at Exeter.
- Changing the academic environment through updating posters, images, and noticeboards.
- Supporting the employability team with career fair events opportunities for Geography students.
- Supporting the logistics of organizing an end of exams celebration event for undergraduates.
- Supporting colleagues with the analysis of current departmental communications, to support with the establishment of an improved and sustained communication strategy plan.
