Bio

I am a 21 year old female living in the United Kingdom. I studied Sociology, Politics and Economics at A-Level, before moving towards a more vocational degree - Management. I want to understand all areas of business, as I feel this is critical in order to one day operate within one. To be successful, you must work collaboratively - no man is an island. I did performing arts for 10 years, and so I feel confident and comfortable speaking in public. I am working at a 1st Class Honours in my degree, which I commit myself to in full and intend to see through at the same level

I'm passionate about

Revolutions in the criminal justice system, the growing importance of corporate social responsibility and what the everyday person can do to limit their impact on the environment

An idea worth spreading

Every day is a school day

Areas of expertise

Advertising, Marketing, Media

The TED story

As I embark on my final year of university, I am hungry for a new challenge. TED has been a key player in my both personal and professional growth; opening my mind to new ideas and perspectives that would have otherwise been invisible to me. I decided to apply for a University TEDx licence and will be organising this conference alongside completing my Business and Management (With a Year in Industry) BA
