EDUCATION
First Class BA (Hons) Media, Industry and Innovation.
During my undergraduate studies I successfully completed the following modules which covers the broad landscape of the media industry, as well as other subject areas such as business and sociology. Requiring a variety of approaches to complete assignments, both individually and as teams, practical work, marketing strategies, industry reports, presentations, literature reviews, essays, and project plans:
​
Critical Approaches to Media
Digital Media, Data, and Society
Business, Creative, Digital Industries, and Innovation
Creative Industries and Promotional Cultures
Understanding Audiences: Theory and Context
Videogames Culture
Research Methods for Live Projects
Digital Media Enterprise
Brands and Branding
Media Project Management
Industry Placement
National and Global Media
Sustainability and Innovation in Digital Culture
Digital Media Marketing
Live Project
​
Completing all of these tasks has led me to develop skills new and improve upon those I already possessed:
​
Planning and Time Management
Leadership and Teamwork
Critical Thinking and Evaluation
​
For my final project I chose to focus on the area of digital personal data collection practices implemented by online entities, such as search engines and social media platforms, with the intention of creating a website (the_more_they_know) to inform users about these practices and how they can keep their data safe online.
