Jack Marrero-Allen
Willing to Relocate
Summary
Third year student on track for a First Class degree in BA Media, Culture, Communications. Having recently solo travelled across South America and Canada in my time off university, I am an adventurous individual with a passion for learning and a deeper understanding of the world and cultures. Having solo travelled, my ability to form and maintain strong relationships was proven, often being challenging but being a challenge I succeeded at.
I hold a Level 5 TEFL qualification which signifies my desire to go above and beyond to develop myself and others. I have a strong passion for hiking and have took a recent approach to seeking out historical war hikes. I have undertaken workshops with Channel 4 where I learned and put into practice my understanding of audience behaviours and creativity avenues, which I hope to translate into my desire to embark on a career in marketing.
