I’m a final-year Law and Criminology student interested in legal auditing, risk management, and procurement. I’m working towards my Internal Auditor Practitioner certificate to build expertise in compliance, governance, and risk assessment, a field in which I’m eager to launch my career after graduation.

My academic journey has equipped me with a solid understanding of legal frameworks, criminal behavior, and ethical decision-making. Alongside my studies, my experience in hospitality and as a till operator has helped me develop key skills like attention to detail, problem-solving, and effective communication. These experiences have strengthened my ability to stay organised, work under pressure, and collaborate in dynamic environments—all skills I’m excited to bring to auditing and risk management.

I’m particularly passionate about helping organisations identify risks, improve processes, and ensure compliance with regulatory standards. With my proactive approach to learning and dedication to building a career in this field, I’m confident I can contribute to any team with fresh perspectives and a strong work ethic.

I’m excited to network, gain insights from professionals, and explore opportunities to grow and make a meaningful impact.

I have professional experience in hospitality and as a till operator, where I developed strong communication, problem-solving, and organisational skills. These roles taught me how to manage responsibilities under pressure, deliver excellent service, and maintain attention to detail, key abilities that translate well into auditing and risk management.

I am currently completing a Law and Criminology degree, which has provided me with a solid foundation in legal principles, regulatory frameworks, and the factors influencing criminal behavior. This education has equipped me with strong analytical and research skills, alongside a deep understanding of compliance, governance, and ethical decision-making—critical for roles in legal auditing, risk management, and procurement. Additionally, I am pursuing my Internal Auditor Practitioner certificate to improve my understanding in auditing and risk assessment.
