I was awarded a leavers certificate for completing first year in Environmental Studies but
didn’t feel the course was directing me to the right career path therefore decided to pursue my
business ambitions. During my time at university I took great pleasure in shadowing Forest
Service Northern Ireland by carrying different research on maps and studying trees and their
environment.
