MY CV 


I’m a creative individual who thrives in a media environment thanks to my ability to put in the hard work and in creating a buzz. Nick Clegg once praised my entrepreneurial spirit and tenacity to get things done.

Work Experience 
May 2011 – March 2012 
Future Arts           
Youth Ambassador 
It was my role to represent the organisation and promote the work that they did within Leeds. I did this through the use of social media, blogging and meeting with organsiation's face to face, through this I got to work on my skills in front of a microphone and develop strong PR abilities. I also wrote critical columns about unemployment which attracted readers such as Leeds City Council CEO Tom Riordan and Guardian columnist Amelia Gentleman. Perhaps my greatest moment at Future Arts came when I got the organisation on BBC West Yorkshire's Raw Talent. I also managed an innovative marketing campaign where I went round with a placard to organisations' which made more people aware of Future Arts in the city and increased their followers on twitter. 
February 2010 – February 2013
