Destiny Jacobs

I am Destiny, a 25-year-old student currently pursuing a Youth Studies Degree at University. My goal is to empower young individuals in and outside my community to thrive and make a positive impact. I have a strong affinity for the outdoors and have previously collaborated with notable figures like Bear Grylls and Dwayne Fields to introduce young people to new experiences beyond the city. I possess excellent leadership skills and can effectively work both independently and as part of a team, thanks to my exceptional interpersonal skills.

being a mother of two, I have been unemployed for a considerable period. Nevertheless, I have actively engaged in voluntary work within the local community and youth organizations in Hackney. From 2015 to 2020, I held the position of a hospitality supervisor at Alexandra Palace, V&A Museum, and other establishments.

 I am a second-year Youth Studies student at London Metropolitan University. I completed my secondary education at Stoke Newington School and Sixth Form, where I achieved my GCSEs in Maths and English.
