"I graduated from Exeter Business School with an HND in Business and Marketing after which, in September 2002, I joined RBS London. In May 2004, I graduated with a BA (Hons) International Marketing. Studying at RBS London was a big challenge and a lot of fun. One of the biggest challenges was keeping up with my work placement, while still enjoying my social events outside and inside college and most importantly my college work."
