Previous experience
I have worked with Young Enterprise Northern Ireland as a digital ambassador to outline how careers nowadays involve digital aspects and how it relates to all subject areas. I visited several secondary schools and outlined my career from geographic survey and mapping with the NI water service and NI electricity to cartographic surveying with NAVTEQ.
Why I want to become a Professional Ambassador
As a passionate geographer, I’m fascinated by the diverse lessons geography offers, from topography and geomorphology to political and historical aspects. I love exploring maps, atlases, and global patterns and would be thrilled to share this enthusiasm and knowledge as a Geography Ambassador with secondary aged kids.
