Jaiden
University of Essex
Economics
I came to Uni here after a long time debating it, I wasn't sure if it was for me, but since making up my mind and actually coming, despite all of the fears and worries about debt and social life and relationships and my course- its been some of the best months of my life. I've never felt as sociable as I do naturally now, and with all the new awesome people i've met in lessons / am living with, they've made me come out of my shell a lot. Living away from home was pretty weird to start off with, but honestly the university is such an accommodating and welcoming place that this just feels like a second home to me now, just as much as back home is still my "home", I feel I've settled in here really well, and I'm sure you'll do the same, so try not to let your doubts control you too much, because its an experience you don't want to miss out on

Beyond my academics, I’m passionate about sports, fitness, wellness, entrepreneurship, and community engagement—I believe in living a balanced life and giving back to those around me. I currently live off-campus, which has given me the chance to explore the local community and meet people from all walks of life.
My academic interests lie in economics, finance, and business advisory, where I aspire to build a fulfilling career that makes a real impact. I’m always eager to learn, grow, and connect with like-minded individuals.
