What’s your job title and how long have you worked at Loughborough?
I am the Corporate Communications Intern for 2023/24 and I have been working at Loughborough since September 2023.
What does a typical day look like for you?
A typical day in my job can be extremely varied – I work across the Internal Communications team, the Public Relations team, and the Social Media team so I often have lots of different things to work on. Usually, I have a few articles to write for internal news, sometimes a press release for one of the ‘Experts’ podcasts, creating teasers and assets for social media, filming news features, and putting together the ‘Loughborough in the News’ newsletter. Occasionally, I’ll help the Social Media team with filming content around campus.
What’s your favourite project you’ve worked on?
My favourite project that I have worked on would definitely be filming some of the athletes who competed in Paris this summer. Filming the swimming athletes was really varied and I hadn’t done anything similar to that before, so I learnt a lot from that experience (and it was really cool to watch from underwater!)
What is your proudest moment at Loughborough?
My proudest moment at Loughborough would be when some of the breakdancing video shots I did made it into national media outlets.
What is something you do outside of work?
Outside of work, I compete in Muay Thai & Kickboxing (as part of the Loughborough Students Kickboxing Club). I first started the sport when I was 14 and started competing when I came to University.
What is your favourite quote?
‘If you weren’t ready, you wouldn’t have the opportunity.’
