Çï¿ûÊÓƵ is like a second home to me. No matter how many times I come back to Greenwich I can’t help but pause and take in the magnificent surrounds of the University and Cutty Sark.

Memories of Greenwich

I have uncountable memories from my time at Greenwich as the place itself is very serene, vibrant and beautiful. I made lots and lots of friends from different part of the world.

We used to study, eat and hangout together. All the good and bad times were shared within the campus. From a refreshing walk along the Thames path to the longest lunches in Greenwich Market exploring delicious cuisines, this place has all my heart. My Snapshot is very special to me as this moment was the turning point of my career. After finishing my, I got an opportunity to present my business skills through the University’s Generator.

This moment came during the Graduate Entrepreneur scheme and I was one among the few international students who were selected and got sponsored by Generator for the scheme. My photo is still showcased at the entry of Hamilton House. With all the support and motivation from the University, I have started my digital marketing business and recently started my business in the UK.

Life after Greenwich

With all my learning from my MBA, I have recently started my online shoes store, Skypack World, and have been trading across the UK. I have been importing and exporting to and from the UK and Asia while utilising my digital marketing skills to scale up the business. I am now working on creating leads for my business and have been in talks with some big clients in the industry.

I am very proud to be a part of the University Greenwich alumni community and I am also helping current students as a mentor through the University’s Careers Mentoring programme. I am actively engaged in various University events and was also invited to showcase my entrepreneurial journey as a panel speaker at a Passport Networking Event.
