- About Joe
What was your experience of Further/Higher education like?听
I first started in 2009 but then withdrew in 2011 as I听realised听I was not ready for university (it is okay to take your time with this!). Took a year out and worked as a full-time tennis coach and then I reapplied in 2012 at Leeds Beckett on Psychology BSc and graduated in 2015. Through this, I learnt to take my time with things, that I don鈥檛 need to听rush听and I can do things at my own pace and still be successful.听听
What do you like most about your work as a Student Adviser?
As a student adviser, I take great satisfaction in helping students navigate their academic journey and achieve their goals. I enjoy providing support and guidance, empowering students to overcome challenges and reach their full potential. The most rewarding aspect of my role is witnessing their growth and success.
What's a surprising or interesting fact about yourself?
Most people know听I鈥檓 very much a countryside kind of person and love nature and being in the fresh air听and听I always said I could never live in London because it鈥檚 too big and too busy.听I鈥檓 now living my best life in London!听
