  • Education

    • University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

      2019 - 2019
      Bachelor of Business Administration - BBA Business 1st

      During my time studying at University of Bath I was lucky enough to spend a semester at University of Illinois just outside Chicago. This proved to be the highlight of my degree and something I would highly recommend to anyone studying at university, it doesn’t matter where it is, just go and study somewhere new if you get the chance!

    • Babcock International Group

      Aug 2017 - Jan 2018
      Strategy Intern

      My role within Babcock's Defence Systems Technology Division was primarily concerned with researching and assessing Merger and Acquisition targets. During my time with Babcock I gained experience in financial modelling and conducting market research. I also gave a number of presentations to my superiors based on reports I had developed on both Babcock internally and external M&A targets.

    • The Warwickshire Golf & Country Club

      Jun 2018 - Sept 2018
      Pro Shop Assistant

      My role at the Warwickshire was based in the professional shop where I was tasked primarily with checking in guests, both for the golf course and the hotel, and managing the tee sheet to ensure golfers on both courses teed off at their assigned times. Through my role I significantly improved my interpersonal skills through interactions with clients. I also gained team working and time management skills through collaboration with the on course marshals to ensure the tee times ran smoothly and to avoid bottlenecks on the golf course. Show less

    • The Kraft Heinz Company

      Feb 2019 - Aug 2019
      Finance Intern

      My placement at Kraft Heinz was spent working in Category Development team of the infant department. The baby food market does not instantly jump out to a 20 year old as an ideal market to work in but it was absolutely fantastic. There are more products in the baby food market than in any other Heinz operate in, making it an incredible market through which to learn and apply deeper analytical skills. Kraft Heinz has an amazing, fast-paced culture through which I learned more than I have anywhere else on networking, time management and presenting. I was given an incredible level of responsibility right from the start, something I think would be hard to find at any other company of the size. Show less

    • The Kraft Heinz Company

      Sept 2020 - Feb 2021

      I joined the Graduate Scheme at Kraft Heinz fully expecting to remain within the company for many years. It is a phenomenal company and one of the best graduate schemes out there, capable of igniting the burgeoning potential in any aspiring trainee. Being at Kraft Heinz inspired me... but in a very different way. Throughout the countless speeches from company and industry leaders much older and wiser than me there was one continuous theme, passion beats everything... do what you love, love what you do and you will deliver as a result. I knew within about 2 months of being at KHC that I should be playing golf professionally, I had always known that deep down but was too scared to take the leap. Being in a company full of highly competent and reflective individuals lit the flame that burns inside me today. I will be forever grateful to Kraft Heinz for that. Show less
