In November 2018, I accepted a job as a director of a residential camp for blind children and adults - called Highbrook Lodge. I'm finding the role both a great fit and an interesting challenge.
And, happily, I know that I landed my dream-job having learned a great deal from a fine set of teachers. Thank you for a great academic experience and for all your support and guidance while I completed my course. I also appreciated how you took the time to help me consider all of the possibilities for my future.

I have been working as a research assistant with the Hate and Hostility Research Group here in UL since finishing the MA. I also work as a tutor in the Department of Sociology.
I LOVE my job. It is definitely related to both my undergrad and my MA. I would not be able to do the job without the skills I acquired during both courses. I would love to continue in the role while completing my PhD.
