  • I was privileged to be part of PwC's Technology Degree Apprenticeship program, working as a Technology Consultant. Out of a large pool of applicants, I was one of the fortunate 20 selected for this competitive program, which not only covered my university fees but also provided me with invaluable work experience and project opportunities during my summers.
  • In addition to the summer placement stints, I also completed a year-long work experience at PwC, fully immersing myself in the role of a Technology Consultant, this covered a wide range of challenges, from promoting the program as an ambassador to schools across northern Ireland, to creating management platforms for ASDA working along side clients to ensure it fit their needs.
  • Additional opportunities to work along side UK based non-profit organisations, helping expand 'Carib Eats' by creating pitch decks to up sell the organisation and draw in new investment.
