Affiliations

I enjoy exploring how emerging technologies such as AI, automation, and Industry 4.0 shape the business landscape, and I actively build skills in SQL, data visualisation, and web design to strengthen my problem-solving and digital creativity. Beyond academics, I am a singer for the Pensa Manchester choir, where I collaborate with others in performances. I also contribute to planning events and activities for workshops and social gatherings, which has developed my organisation and project coordination skills. I enjoy networking and attending business-related events, staying up to date with new ideas and building connections.
