Having graduated from the university of Nottingham with a joint honours, I am eager to learn and understand more about the consulting industry, more specifically government and policy focused. Currently I am a sales representative at Offspring Shoes (Selfridges) and during my free time I manage a sneaker reselling hobby, whilst in the process of teaching myself  Microsoft Excel.

• Recognising a lack of affordable tuition services, I assisted in starting up a tuition centre which catered for students studying A levels and GCSE’s.

University of Nottingham, UK

• Politics and Economics Bsc Jt Hons – 2:1
• Treasurer for Nottingham Tamil Society
• Innovation Entrepreneur at Nottingham Green Economy Society

A joint honours programme allowed me to grasp the inter-connectivity of Politics and Economics and allow myself to apply different concepts from particular fields within one another. I strongly feel that unlike standard disciplines, studying a joint honours programme gave me a wider understanding of how policies for instance have implications on different aspects of the economy.
