Who Am I?

So, some information on me

I am 21 years old, have been running businesses of various different types and kinds for the past year. the first was a social enterprise involving young people which created masses and masses of free to air content, written by young people. Added to this was a load of educational material that we sold, alongside HarperCollins and Microsoft. Sadly it didn't work out, but it had a high profile - check these out: pupiline, oli watts.

Then i moved on to run a consultancy business, which worked with the DfES and the working group on 14-19 reform to produce a load of materials on their work. coupled with work with a load of national charities, schools and other things its been pretty successful.

To come right up to date, i'm now working at the. RBDO of the University of Essex as a Business Development Manager - my job is to scout for new opportunities for work for the University, which is pretty exciting and rather demanding.

Also I run the musical side of the Suffolk school of samba - which is a massive group of drummers and dancers (more here) we play all over the county and did nearly 40 gigs this season. very much fun indeed!!

Tell me about you.
