What do you most enjoy about your role at Teesside University London?

I love the variety in my role—each day is different. Whether organising events or creating social media content, I enjoy seeing students engage and benefit from what we provide. It's rewarding to see mine or the teams efforts enhance their university experience.

How does your role benefit and support students?

My role supports students by ensuring they stay informed and engaged. Through events, social media content, partnerships internal & external, and research, I help create opportunities that enhance both their academic and personal journeys.

What has been the highlight of your career so far?

A highlight has been organising successful student events that boosted engagement and built community! I am really proud of how well Pancake Day went on campus. On top of this to win 'Unsung Hero' on our staff away day was a special achievement as I always want to be there for my team so to be recognised for that meant a lot!

Why should students consider studying at Teesside University London?

Teesside University London offers practical, real-world learning in one of the most exciting UK cities. Our innovative programs, strong industry links, and close-knit supportive community make it a great place to study, grow, and succeed - it's not like your normal uni, which is I think is super beneficial.

What is the best piece of advice you have for your students?

Take advantage of every opportunity! Whether it’s joining/creating a club, attending events, or pursuing internships, the more involved you are, the more you’ll gain from your time at university. And never hesitate to ask for help—we’re here to support you.
