Hi I’m Michaela!
I graduated from Northumbria University in the summer of 2011 with a First Class Degree in Business with Marketing and I’ve since moved back home just outside of York. Since I graduated I have been participating in various marketing internships to gain some experience within my field.
I have a real passion for fundraising for charities – Martin House Children’s Hospice, Marie Curie and Cancer Research UK are just a few I’ve raised money for in the past. It also gives me an excuse to do something crazy like abseil off the Tyne Bridge in high-speed winds – yes, I’m mad!
I hope to eventually gain my dream career in marketing – I believe that hard work really does pay off! But before that I’m simply enjoying gaining some experience and I may enjoy a spot of traveling!
Life is like a mirror – smile and it smiles back at you.
