About me

As a blind person I feel extremely inspired and determined to succeed and achieve my ambitions. I feel that my hard work, communication and interpersonal skills and a desire to succeed have enabled me to overcome any challenges and barriers that I am confronted with. Adversity has made me an incredibly strong individual and I aim to achieve the highest levels, professionalism in my work as a Doctoral researcher. I believe that my excellent communication skills enable me to be an integral part of a team, contributing ideas and use my experience to initiate and lead and to direct others when required. I understand that as a blind person there will be times where I may need some additional assistance to complete tasks to the high standard which I expect of myself and my team members, but i do not feel that this will impair me in achieving the highest standards possible.

My academic and working journey reflects my ability to undertake and complete tasks on time. My experience as a producer with the Voice of Islam Radio, has enabled me to work as part of a team and also to work alone using my initiative and to understand the ethics which are required to produce top quality content.

As someone who has suffered sight loss, words whether spoken or written provide an amazing tool for expressing and telling a story and I am determined to make sure that these principles remain and enable stories to be told no matter how distressing or positive they are. I strongly believe that by telling a story, is the only way that you can begin awareness of a specific issue and this is one way which can begin a process of eliminating negative stereotypes and views. I believe that my positivity, professionalism and the ability to galvanize my team members will enable me to succeed in this position and be able to take it up to another level.
