About
My name is Katie Rumble, I am twenty-one and living in London. I moved to London to study Advertising, PR and Branding at Middlesex University. My degree has taught me many crucial skills that have made me successful in my career. I am currently seeking exciting opportunities that will encourage my growth, challenge me and allow me to progress and continue learning.
Studying Advertising, PR and Branding allowed me to expand my industry knowledge, experience different sectors and improve my skills. After experiencing the various sectors of media communications, I have developed crucial skills in Adobe Creative Suite and Microsoft Office alongside developing my confidence, teamwork, problem-solving and critical thinking skills. I began my career in the creative industry in Lockdown 2020, when I began building my portfolio by freelancing/volunteering for local companies struggling to move their businesses online. Since then, I have continued to develop my career and skills in various roles.
My first experience with media and communications was in sixth form. I was recommended to try the course based on my skills in English studies, and it was the best decision I ever made. From the first class, I felt I had finally found a subject that understood me. It didn't matter how varied my interests were; it combined all my skills into one fun subject and re-ignited my creative spirit. From there, I changed my career plans from studying English Literature at University to studying a form of Media and Communications. I began my degree at Canterbury Christ Church University, studying Media and Communication Studies. Still, after a year of online classes due to Covid-19, I decided to move away from home, and I transferred to Advertising, PR and Branding at Middlesex University. This course was more specific and industry relevant.
​
Since beginning my University studies, I have grown exponentially, and I understand my strengths and weaknesses, alongside what industries I am interested in and will succeed in. My hobbies include going to the gym, playing sports, cooking and fashion. I enjoy meeting family and friends in my free time, going for food, travelling and parties.
​
I am friendly, welcoming and chatty. I enjoy working in a team but am confident and unafraid to take the lead in a group. I enjoy working in a supportive environment that encourages education and growth, alongside a team that care about each other's success.
