What I'm looking for

I'm looking to specialise in behavioural psychology within business, using consumer research and qualitative and quantitative data to understand customer needs and support commercial decision-making.

I'm completing a Psychology degree at Sheffield Hallam University, where I conducted a quantitative dissertation on gendered adverbs and reading times and developed strong data collection, analysis, and evidence-based decision-making skills.

During an eight-week Customer Insight placement at Sheffield Hallam University, I researched consumer behaviour, analysed qualitative and quantitative data, identified purchasing trends, and presented findings to support commercial decisions. I've also collaborated with a consultant psychologist on research into mental health, wellbeing, and general health.
