Personal 

Having graduated from University with a first class honours, I’m looking for a new challenge which can broaden my skills in a progressive environment. I am from the UK originally but am seeking to relocate ideally to Rotterdam but am flexible across Netherlands. I am a keen amateur sportsperson playing Tennis, Squash and Windsurfing, and have a very outwards looking view on the world having spent much of the last year traversing Latin America backpacking. I’m now ready to return to Europe and try something new.

BA Geography, The University of Sheffield. 
Human geographer attaining a First Class degree classification, with a specific interest in issues ranging from geopolitics to inequality and demographics. My university experience empowered me with with a different way of evaluating and justifying complex arguments and decisions based on a series of different contexts and world issues. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Sheffield and my thesis of analysing social media discourse from both sides of the vastly underreported Western Sahara conflict was an intellectually and conceptually rewarding experience.
