Since graduating in 2019 with an undergraduate degree in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics, I have worked in educational outreach in the charity sector and in higher education. I recently completed my MA in Philosophy at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver and have returned to take up the role of Student Recruitment and Outreach Officer at the newest part of the UWL Group, Ruskin College. I have always had a passion for social mobility and higher education access, being a first-generation student from the East End of Glasgow, and hope that my work at Ruskin will help more students achieve their aspirations and discover everything higher and further education has to offer them.
Having worked in educational outreach and recruitment before, I know the challenges and barriers that applicants face, and I am keen and ready to support prospective students across Oxfordshire and Berkshire. Oxford has been a city close to my heart since I moved here for my undergraduate studies back in 2016. With the support of the community in and around Oxfordshire and Berkshire, I am confident that Ruskin and UWL can have a really positive impact on adult learners and young people across the counties!
Do reach out if you have any questions about studying at Ruskin College or the Berkshire Institute for Health in Reading, or if you would like to talk about how UWL can support you or your local community in Oxfordshire or Berkshire.
