Head of Careers, Mrs. Dawson, was thrilled to extend a warm invitation to alumna Liv Jones, a graduate of 2017 who pursued Modern Languages at Birmingham University. Today, Liv stands as an award-winning Journalist at the esteemed Telegraph newspaper in London.
During her visit, Liv shared the allure of her vibrant career during a lunch with her former teachers, painting a vivid picture of an exciting life filled with exclusive stories and the dynamic world of journalism, both in print and online.
Taking the time to connect with aspiring writers in Year 11 and 12, Liv offered valuable insights into her journey, emphasising the path of pursuing an undergraduate degree followed by an intensive Journalism qualification, as she did at Kingston University. The significance of her linguistic abilities in shaping her career progression was also highlighted.
At Queen's, we feel incredibly fortunate to count Liv among our esteemed alumni and their willingness to return to school regularly, sharing their experiences and offering guidance, exemplifies the strong bonds within our Queen's community. This connection with successful alumni is a cornerstone of our award-winning careers programme, providing current students with invaluable mentoring, inspiration, and advice that greatly contributes to their personal and professional development.
