Recent Nutrition and Health graduate with strong leadership skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and passionate individual who has recently completed my degree in Nutrition and Health (BSc) at Coventry University, where I am due to graduate in July 2025 with First-Class Honours and the Class Excellence Award. My academic background has equipped me with a solid foundation in nutrition, health, and evidence-based practices, making me eligible to register with the AfN upon graduation.
Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience in various roles, including my current position as an Intern at Lily Samuels Nutrition, where I assist with digital media and content creation. My previous roles have allowed me to develop strong leadership and operational skills, particularly during my time as Managing Director at Springfield Sales Ltd, where I managed a team of 15-20 employees and ensured compliance with health and safety standards. I thrive in dynamic environments and am committed to delivering exceptional service and fostering positive relationships with clients and colleagues.
