Profile
My role is to manage corporate events for the University, researching, developing and organising events to promote the University’s profile at local, regional and national level. Duties include events management as well as press and publicity for each event. My portfolio of events includes the Public Lecture Series, our annual welcome event for the parents and partners of new students, National Science and Engineering Week as well as building openings and the University's Graduation Dinner.
Born in Indonesia, I was educated in Singapore and the USA before making Britain my home. With an MBA and an MA in Arts Management, I enjoy my current role which combines my love for marketing and the arts and allows me to develop new areas of interest such as maths and science outreach. I am also a member of the Support Staff Association and the Staff Social Club Committee and I chair the Multicultural Staff Forum.
