What attracted you to study at the ºìÐÓÊÓƵ?
Brighton is the most happening place in the UK, it’s where all the new ideas are coming from and it has a really nice international feel. If I feel lost in life I just go back to Brighton.
Are there any extra-curricular skills that you developed at Sussex that you feel have supported you since graduating?
I joined so many societies and they all contributed. For example, ‘Off the Cuff’ improv comedy trained me to be more confident in front of people.
