Summary

I have recently withdrawn from my undergraduate studies at Cardiff Metropolitan University where I was undertaking a Sports and Exercise Science degree , due to increasing concerns about the mounting student debt and the belief that I can achieve my ultimate life goals through other means. I have always loved playing and competing in sport from a young age. I've played Badminton from the age of 7 and have played for my school , County and for Cardiff Met University BUCs team. I have also played Cricket for both school and local teams and county. My background in sport has given me the drive to always try to be the best and win.

My most recent job was working for the Post Office which I enjoyed due to the social and physical benefits, but I am now looking for a more permanent career path.
