I see myself being in coaching roles that develop me into a person who is capable of helping to develop players and coaches both here in the UK and further afield in Bermuda. My course is helping me to get there.
Studying the undergraduate Sport Psychology degree allowed me to progress onto the Sport Psychology Masters. I’ve now got a job as an Assistant Football Development Officer for Women and Girls at Liverpool County Football Association. The support and help from LJMU and my lecturers has given me the skills for this role.
I have wanted to study nutrition my entire life. As a mother of two I knew I would find it difficult, but would fight to get my degree. All of the course modules and tutors are amazing and supportive. When I graduate I want to have my own small business as a dietitian and blogger.
I spent time at Warrington Wolves and the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield and took up a Senior Strength and Conditioning Internship at LJMU. On graduation I had two part-time paid roles with the Liverpool under 21s ladies team and the Talented Athletes Scholarship Scheme. This helped me build up some essential experience. I’m now working in my dream job as a Strength and Conditioning Coach at LJMU.
