Msc Public Health
I began my career as a midwife in Ghana, where I had the privilege of supporting women and families during one of the most important moments in their lives. This hands-on experience in maternal and newborn care not only strengthened my clinical skills but also ignited my passion for improving people’s lives and contributing to positive change on a larger scale. I am currently pursuing this passion through the MSc Public Health programme at the University of Northampton. The university has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to design, implement, as well as evaluate policies and interventions that can improve maternal and child health outcomes at population levels.

Marine Biology
Hello! 👋 I'm Alice, a student at the University of Essex currently pursuing an integrated masters in Tropical Marine Biology. I'm thrilled to be a part of the Unibuddy community as a Student Ambassador, where I can share my unique journey and experiences with you.
Beyond the academic realm, I have a deep passion for invertebrates in the sea, including jellyfish and other odd looking creatures! Extra-curricular activities are where I find balance between academia and fun. Squash, running and scuba diving are sports that I truly enjoy. The thrill of a competitive squash match or the serenity of a long run along the coastline are experiences I cherish.
Future Career Plan:
As I progress through my academic journey, my ultimate goal is to contribute significantly to the field of marine biology. I aspire to earn a Ph.D., conducting ground-breaking research that sheds light on the complexities of gelatinous animals and their role in marine ecosystems. My vision extends beyond the laboratory; I aim to bridge the gap between scientific knowledge and public understanding, advocating for the conservation of our oceans.
Join me on this exciting adventure through academia and exploration of the deep sea on Unibuddy! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about marine biology, integrated masters programs, or if you just want to chat about our shared interests.
Let's make the most of our academic journey together! 🌊🔬🏃♂️
