Brand Ambassador

• Aug 2013 - Aug 2015

In light of their 25-year anniversary this year, the NCUK is planning a ‘re-launch’ campaign. To achieve their agenda, they require Brand Ambassadors. This role involved set tasks including writing blog posts for their website. The posts covered various topics, centered around my experience as an international student in the United Kingdom. These aimed to provide guidance to students embarking on their first year at university. The role instilled a sense of self-awareness in me, in that I looked retrospectively at decisions I have made, and the consequences that followed. Therefore, in writing about my experiences, I learnt more about myself, how I function as an individual, my strengths and my weaknesses.
