BSc International Business student at the University of Birmingham, currently studying at DeGroote School of Business. Targeting internship and graduate roles in consulting, strategy and financial services.

I study International Business at the University of Birmingham, and I spent my third year at DeGroote School of Business, McMaster University, reading Commerce with a minor in Arabic. My placements span a healthcare start-up, an insurance brokerage and a fuel-poverty charity, across finance, compliance and policy. Alongside my degree I help a marketing agency, RareStudio, which runs ads, websites and AI search for small businesses. I'm looking to bring that experience into consulting and financial services.
