My academic journey has equipped me with a diverse skill set, particularly in communication and research methodologies, which I have applied in various roles across multiple sectors. I am passionate about leveraging my education and experiences to make a meaningful impact in my future endeavors.

Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience as an Experiential Advisor at St Giles Trust, where I conducted research and engaged with service users to gather insights. My role as an Office Administrator in healthcare settings has honed my organizational and analytical skills, allowing me to improve patient data management and understand the importance of compliance with regulations. I am eager to continue my professional journey, exploring opportunities that align with my interests in retention advising, internet research, and communication.
