Summary

A motivated and disciplined student currently studying at Cardiff Metropolitan University, with a strong background in competitive sport and leadership. Having trialled for the North of England rugby team and captained my club for two years, I have developed key transferable skills including teamwork, communication, and leadership under pressure. My experience in high-performance sporting environments has instilled in me a strong work ethic, resilience, and the ability to thrive in both individual and team settings. I am now looking to apply these attributes in a professional work based setting, bringing dedication, focus, and a commitment to continuous development.
