What does life look for you now?
Work work work!!!
Tell us what you are passionate about?
friends, family, beach and sunshine.
When you were young, what were you hoping to be when you grew up?
I wanted to be an actor!
What is your favourite Radford moment?
Getting to be part of all the theatre productions and the fashion show!
How easy was it to decide what to do in life?
Really hard. It’s difficult to expect someone so young to make a choice about what they are going to do for the rest of their life. So be flexible and know that you can always change your mind and you have loads of options! Travel is key to helping you figure out what you want to do!
Did your further study or career go exactly as you'd planned?
Not at all, in hindsight, I wished I had taken a gap year to get some more perspective. I probably would have chosen to study something other than law.
What advice do you have for current students?
Study is important, but so is enjoying your time and engaging in social / co curricular activities.
