Tamsin
University of Lincoln
Economics and Finance - BSc (Hons)
Hi! I’m Tamsin, I moved from East London to study at the University of Lincoln because I really enjoyed attending the Open Day. I am half-Filipina, so I can definitely relate to many social struggles that others may have. I thought that studying Economics and Finance as my undergraduate degree would be a great choice because there is a large range of jobs and opportunities that require the skills gained across the 3 years. When I was choosing my course I had no thought of a specific job role I wanted to do in the future, but through being at the university the last few months the staff have given me plentiful ideas about what kinds of jobs are out there and what is suitable for me, especially jobs that I did not know much about. In the future I knew for sure I wanted to do something related to Finance and there are many resources at the University to find you experience and information on these things.

Beyond my academics, I’m passionate about sports, fitness, wellness, entrepreneurship, and community engagement—I believe in living a balanced life and giving back to those around me.

David
SOAS
Law and Economics
I am committed to forging a career in law that centers on advocacy. My short-term goal is to qualify as a barrister specialising in financial law and consumer rights, where I aim to champion equitable outcomes for individuals and businesses navigating complex regulatory landscapes. Over time, I aspire to deepen my expertise in these fields, leveraging courtroom advocacy to protect vulnerable parties and uphold accountability in financial systems.
Looking further ahead, my long-term aspiration is to serve as a judge in a senior appellate court. I am driven by the belief that the judiciary plays a pivotal role in shaping fair, precedent-setting decisions—particularly in areas like consumer protection and financial disputes, where systemic imbalances often persist. By bridging rigorous legal analysis with a steadfast commitment to equity, I hope to contribute meaningfully to jurisprudence while fostering public trust in the legal system.
