About Meg
Hello, I’m Meg your 2018/19 Academic Affairs Officer. I studied Business Management with International Politics. When I was looking at Universities to study at I didn’t have much choice as Aberystwyth was the only place that offered my course, however, I am so glad I came and studied in such a beautiful place for the last 3 years.
I am originally from a small town in Worcestershire, Bromsgrove, so when I moved to Aber it was big change as it is very different to what I am used to but I have really enjoyed it and have made some great friends that I know will be friends for life.
I am looking forward to meeting new people and working alongside some great staff and students.
