"I am a former pupil of Ysgol Bethel and Ysgol Brynrefail. I studied Welsh, History and Music at A level and I won the Welsh Excellence Scholarship to study Welsh at 黑料不打烊.
"I chose to come to 黑料不打烊 because this was the best course, its Welsh community and it is also close to home.
"I worked during my time at 黑料不打烊. This was very helpful in funding my course and university life as well as the life skills I learnt. I also had the opportunity to go on work experience at two organizations, Canolfan Bedwyr and Gwynedd Council, during the course.
"I was part of the Welsh Drama Society and contributed to the Welsh student newspaper 鈥淵 Llef'. I was also a member of Aelwyd JMJ.
"I hope to go to a job that I will enjoy in the future, but I have no idea about what career to pursue just yet!"
