Lift Tendring

I went to TTC6 between 2020-2022. I studied Psychology, Criminology, and Media Studies. Currently, I study BSc Psychology at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, where I have just completed my first year. I plan on continuing my degree focusing on Clinical Psychology and the study of Psychopathology and going on to postgraduate study in this field.

I attended TTC from 2008-2016. I'm a future trainee solicitor at an American law firm called Dechert LLP, and I'm due to start as a trainee in August. After finishing Sixth Form, I went to Queen Mary University of London to complete a BA in English and Film Studies. While at university, I undertook various internships ranging from working a law firm in Shanghai to working for L'Oréal to helping a mental health charity. I eventually decided on commercial law after visiting and working in a few law firms in London. From there, I started the gruelling task of trying to get a job at one of these firms. Commercial law firms only hire twice a year, so you need to apply well in advance, and it's extremely competitive. After several years of applying to firms, I eventually did well in a Dechert-sponsored legal competition, and after completing some work experience with them, they made me an offer.

I left TTC in 2017 and pursued my education at a music college in London. Following my graduation, I have actively engaged in the music industry and built a portfolio career, assuming roles as a drummer, musical director, educator, and writer. Throughout my career, I have had the honor of working with artists such as Etham (12:45), Adum (Help Myself), Tilly Valentine, Sam and Sounds, and Alex Hopkins. Additionally, I operate a music studio where I record drum tracks and write for different artists. I also offer private music tuition and artist development. Recently, I have been working as a part-time lecturer at the Academy of Contemporary Music in London, specialising in live music performance, live production technology, and studio recording.
