High 2:1 / GPA: 3.25
I like to keep in good condition and try to keep both my body and mind healthy by working out regularly. I enjoy playing squash and was in the school squash team, I have also participated in playing golf which I have done since I was young and have achieved many qualifications for my skills and knowledge. I have also played American Football for Portsmouth University and my experience as a player has taught me effective teamwork, communication skills and enhanced my drive to succeed. For the past two years, I have focused on self-defence sports to keep me fit and able to protect myself and others. In doing so I have achieved an orange belt in kickboxing and am trying to achieve a red belt further from that. I have also taken up Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and have recently achieved a blue belt and am now striving for my purple belt.
