I am currently a full time student at Leeds Beckett University, studying a Bachelors in Politics & International Relations. In my two years studying I have founded and ran as President of an academic society; the Politics & International Relations Society. I have also undertaken two paid roles alongside my studies: Student Academic Representative Assistant for the School of Humanities & Social Sciences. I was in this role up until leaving the country for a six month Erasmus academic exchange. Upon my return this year, I have secured another position within the university as a Research Student Officer, working with the Research Student Admin Team as a part of The Graduate School. As mentioned, I completed a six month academic Erasmus exchange to The University of Applied Sciences, HHS, in The Hague, The Netherlands. Prior to commencing my studies and these positions at Leeds Beckett, I worked as an Officer - Risk Analyst for HMRC, as a financial investigator and risk analyst.
