My skills
I recently took the risk to quit my 9-5 job and travel the world. My goal is to support business start ups with creative exploration, design thinking and configure a way to challenge social problems with a solution focused approach. I am innovative, curious entrepreneur and best placed helping people to uncover their purpose, create a start up with a social focus and set up their own gig using their unique skill set. I have experience of helping many start ups and look forward to working with people who are ready to change or develop their career and create a positive impact for people or the planet!

Future Aspirations
As a versatile and creative candidate, I hope this CV has been able to evidence that, through hard work and determination, I have been able to achieve the goals and high expectations I previously aspired to. Graduating as a first-class honours student in 2014 and achieving status for the University of Northampton’s Changemaker Lecturer of the Year in 2016 has been a phenomenal experience. However, having been fortunate to be able to develop a wide range of both practical and educational, transferrable skills, I further aspire to continue my education career in a national or overseas role. I am keen to work with individuals, groups or an organisation who are looking to build social innovations and require entrepreneurial support. I look forward to embarking on an inspirational career in which I can utilise my knowledge and achievements to tackle real time problems by knowledge sharing combined with creative and sustainable solutions to their challenges. I am passionate about supporting others to innovatively use hands on, practical experience to help them recognise their own skills and assets which can be utilised to enhance their own work-based learning environment.
