About
Studied PR, Marketing and Communications for 2 years at University before studying Esports for 3 years and graduating with a First in 2022. Experience working in Event Production for Lenovo Legions and LDN UTD, Tournament Administration for Esports Engine and Partnerships for Excel Esports.
Esports has always been a passion of mine, for 5 years I've lived and breathed it on a day-to-day basis. During my studies, I spent a lot of time doing freelance or networking in gaming and esports, which inevitably led to my first full-time job with Excel Esports which lasted 8 months. I gained incredible experience working in Activations and understanding competitive organisations' creative and business elements.
Through all of this, I've gained a number of skills- including administrative skills with Google applications, Microsoft applications and independent researching. I've learned how to think on my feet and problem-solve under stressful conditions as well as think outside of the box and communicate efficiently.
As a person, my aspirations have no boundaries. From working in a range of different roles, I've gained a larger perspective on esports and gaming. I'm always eager to gain more knowledge and because of this, I've become a fast learner and opportunist. I'm also a self-driven and motivated individual that would make any workplace thrive just by the amount of passion I give out.
