Aspiring Geographer | Former Retail Manager | Driven by a Passion for People, Places, and Sustainable SolutionsA mature student currently pursuing a degree in Geography, bringing over half a decade of experience as a retail manager, where I honed my leadership, problem-solving, and organisational skills. My career in retail has provided me with invaluable insights into customer behaviour, collaborative working, and team management - all of which I can now apply to my studies in geography, particularly in areas like, urban planning, sustainability and environmental conservation.The decision to return to education stems from a lifelong passion for understanding the intricate relationships between people and their environments. I’m particularly interested in how we can use geography to address global challenges such as climate change, urbanisation, and resource management. Through my studies and hands-on projects, I’m building expertise in ecology, sustainable cities and societies, and climate change adaption.My goal is to transition into a career where I can combine my management experience with my growing geographic knowledge to create meaningful, sustainable solutions for businesses, communities and our environment. I’m eager to connect with professionals in the fields of urban planning, environmental consultancy and sustainability, whilst also being open to learning about new opportunities where my skills and experiences can make an impact.Let’s connect and explore how geography can help shape a better future!
