Career

I started working as a Student Employability Coach to help support students at the university in their employability journey. One of my favourite aspects about my role is hearing the variety of experiences people have within the university.

Previously, I was a part of the first Bath Insights Internship programme, which gives the opportunity for first and second year students to gain real experience within various university departments over the summer. As part of my internship, I worked developing content in various forms to help influence the student voice within Careers. Taking part in this not only developed my professional experience but allowed me to gain confidence to explore my careers options without completing a placement year.

I am currently in my second year of studying Mathematics. I enjoy applying my knowledge outside the theoretical and hope to incorporate my degree knowledge when I graduate. Outside of my studies, I enjoy spending time exploring Bath and trying to find the best coffee shop in the city. When at home in London, I spend my time searching second hand shops to find peculiar vintage pieces.
