I am an MSc Events and Hospitality Leadership graduate with a passion for delivering exceptional service and seamless event experiences. I bring a blend of academic and practical experience, with a diverse background in event coordination and the performing arts.

My MSc programme equipped me with expertise in research, event planning, and proposal development. I analysed data from diverse sources, identified performance indicators, and presented findings through detailed reports, incorporating visuals and testimonials.

This role has deepened my understanding and commitment to creating inclusive spaces. My responsibilities include managing busy diaries and coordinating logistics for meetings and events.
