Wirral Grammar School for Boys

“Medical school and practice..is challenging. You have to be
able to look after yourself and.. how to ask for help when you
need it. I am completing a training programme at the Central
London School of Anaesthesia: mixture of applied physiology &
pharmacology, procedural work and management of
emergencies. I also provide medical support to Glastonbury
and Reading festivals!”

My seven years at WGSB were filled with countless
unforgettable memories. Rugby was a huge part and I
made some fantastic friends who I still keep in touch
with today. Playing rugby helped me develop
important teamwork and communication skills, which
are essential for my work now. I chose biology,
chemistry, and geography, which gave me a balanced
mix of practical and essay-based work

I studied Biology, Psychology, and English Literature
in sixth form. I was involved in supporting the
school’s drama productions and also a member of
school’s Livewire Radio, as an audio technician and
designing the relaunched station’s branding.
In these extracurricular activities, you can see my
passion for design and branding - which is the world
I now inhabit.
I took the apprenticeship route with the Ministry of Defence
which ended unfortunately...ultimately down to a job role that
wasn’t appropriate. I struck out on my own, secured a
communications position where I supported one of London’s
largest housing associations during the COVID-19
pandemic..going on to secure two positions at large, esteemed
organisations in the following years. With a bit of grit and
determination, I made it through and am now enjoying a
successful early career.
I’m in Marketing and Communications for the UK’s largest
healthcare charity. I’m supporting our Chief Executive in his
early months at this organisation, helping familiarise our
16,000 staff members with him and his realigned strategy. My
job involves copywriting, content production, media handling,
and brand strategy - it treads a fine line between a more
creative position with a corporate head office position.
