Summary

I am an aspiring Sports Scientist with GCSE and A-Level qualifications in Physical Education. I have now completed my Bachelor’s degree in Sports and Exercise Sciences and awaiting results. From this, I am going to continue my Sports Science journey by completing a Master’s in Sports Nutrition. When I’m at university, I play for the Mumbles rugby team, which plays in the national league, division 2.

Because I also have a passion for cooking, along side my academic pathway, I am a dedicated Line Cook skilled in meal preparation and assuring quality products. I function as a vital team member and perform well under pressure.

Outside of university, I attend Karate lessons, where I have received 3 Black Belts. I am also an instructor at my local Sea Cadets Corpse, where I produce lessons for the cadets; help out with our waterborne activities and camps. Before I became an instructor, I was a cadet. During my time as a cadet, I was given the role of Mayor of Winchester’s Cadet. This was a prestigious role among the cadets.
