I am currently in my second year at Newcastle University studying Exercise Biomedicine and am
seeking a Placement or some valuable work experience. I am a mature, punctual, reliable and
hardworking individual. Throughout my educational life I have always been interested in
sport/science based subjects. Whilst undertaking this degree at Newcastle University I have
been especially interested in the Anatomy, Sports Psychology and Exercise Nutrition modules,
as well as the Pharmacology module. I am hoping to one day qualify to be an Osteopath and
work in the private sector. Starting the year of 2017 I will be studying Exercise Physiology as
well as Biomechanics which I am severely looking forward to.

in jobs such as a bar maid/ waitress which require good communication.

had to work in numerous laboratory experiments with a partner.
• Leadership: I have previously acquired the UK level 2 award in Sports Leadership as
well as being a peer mentor which both required high levels of leadership.
