Final-year Marketing student with real-world industry experience.

I am in my final year of a Marketing & Management degree at the University of Exeter, having spent a year on placement as the European Marketing Assistant for Panasonic TOUGHBOOK, assisting in channel partner marketing across Europe, as well as UK&I regional events and campaigns.

Alongside my degree, I have led the publicity team for XRacing, the university’s Formula Student team, and worked part-time as a videographer for the Students’ Guild. 

Outside of work, I enjoy astrophotography and motorsport, as well as owning my own camera for photography and videography.
