Affiliations

  • I am passionate about sports and fitness, regularly participating in football, running, and gym workouts. These activities help me stay active, disciplined, and work well in a team environment. Additionally, I have a strong interest in outdoor adventures, particularly hiking, and have successfully completed the Bronze, Silver, and Gold levels of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE). This experience has strengthened my resilience, teamwork, and problem-solving skills through challenging expeditions and volunteer work. Alongside my studies in Multimedia Sports Journalism at Bournemouth University, I have a keen interest in writing articles, particularly on sports-related topics.
