University

Since leaving Montsaye in 2014, I headed off to study Business
Management and Marketing at Nottingham Trent University
(NTU). During my degree I got to engage with large organisations
across the country, working with other students consulting on improvements. I even got the
opportunity to study in Toulouse, France for 3 weeks, which the university paid for.
I graduated in 2017 with a 2:1. Following this, I then completed my Master’s degree in MSc
Advertising & Branding, graduating with a Distinction. This was a great experience, as I got to
work with students from around 50 different countries, again working on projects which
helped myself and local organisations.
Since then, I have been elected as the President of the Nottingham Trent Students’ Union.
This is my role until June 2020, and in this I represent and enhance the university experience
of around 32,000 students. This role allows me to meet Government officials and leaders of
other industries, whilst driving change at the head of the Students’ Union, which turns over
£5 million a year.”
