I graduated from Nottingham Trent University after completing the BSc Property Finance & Investment Sandwich course in 2023. In the third year of my course I undertook an industry placement, working for a firm of chartered surveyors in the City of Chester. Here I gained my first real insight into the world of property, as I gained experience in multiple aspects of real estate, including, agency, valuation, property management and building surveying. After completing my university degree I have joined Colliers in the Advisory & Restructuring team as part of their graduate scheme, where I shall work towards completing my APC in accordance with the RICS and gain my chartership.
