Upon graduation, I hope to work in the health and wellness sector and specialise in organic community building strategy before starting my own company. My professors at Imperial have encouraged me to dream big and develop strategies that build strong relationships with customers that enable them as people. I am currently working with two professors at the Business School in order to build a business plan for my future company. My studies at Imperial have given me the confidence to pursue my dream of starting a business that integrates the things I am most passionate about - community, body positivity and wellness.
