I joined FVG as I’m deeply passionate about helping other young people find early career opportunities and gain the essential skills to securing places on these opportunities. It’s something I do in my job and in my personal life, and I’d like to build upon my knowledge of how youth unemployment is tackled systemically to enable me to better serve the youth I try to guide professionally.

I am currently about to start a new full time role in the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG). I also work part time for the Young Person’s Action Group as part of the London Violence Reduction Unit. I also do private tutoring and serve as a voluntary early careers mentor for Bridging Barriers.

I want to increase the awareness and availability of opportunities to as many young people as possible, because it is these early opportunities that have the largest ripple effect on the rest of their lives.
