I set out to earn a living instead of studying, but despite this choice I always wanted to fulfil my ambition to have a qualification.

I set about furthering my education, to advance my business understanding and enrich my life skills; all from the comfort of my home. That’s why I chose to study BA (Hons) Business and Management with the University of Essex Online.

My new-found knowledge and confidence have improved my career over the past four years, teaching me the ‘corporate speak’ and I feel qualified to belong to the corporate world.

My final objective on my personal development plan was for my daughter to look up to me and see me as a good example of a working mother with a growing career. Having my family at my graduation filled me with pride.
