I am the founder of Pagoda Projects, who organise global experiences for 50+ university partners around the world. I completed a one-year placement in Germany during my studies at the University of Liverpool and lived in China for 4 years before 'retiring' to Manchester. I’m impact-focused and passionate about making global opportunities accessible to any student, irrespective of their background. Pagoda was acquired in 2023 and since then I also head up work-integrated learning partnerships for Gradcore whilst continuing Pagoda’s work in student mobility. I’m passionate about work-based learning, travel, cultural exchange and foreign languages.
