| Introduction | I graduated from Anglia Ruskin University in 2006 with a 2:1 in English, though I stole a few film studies and drama modules along the way. I am pretty much obsessed with the entertainment industry, especially films, but also television. It's such a cliche, but I want to write a bestseller some day, but that's definitely a pipe dream. Though, I do have an idea now, it's just gathering up the little courage I have to write it.
I'm a library assistant at the Judge Business School Library and my main responsibilities are document delivery, ebooks and faculty publications. However I am also the backup for cataloguing, I helped implement the interactive tutorials system and I'm co-manager of our questionnaire software, Qualtrics. Along with the rest of the library staff, I work on reading lists, referencing, faculty citations, general library admin and anything else that needs doing. |
| Interests | My family is the main one, but also writing stories and poems, Literature, Music, Film and TV, the entertainment industry really, tennis (watching), photography, travel (but not the travelling part), swimming (when I get the time) |
| Favorite Movies | The list is incredibly long, but here are the main three: Leon, Princess Bride and Grosse Pointe Blank TV: Alias, Lost, House, Leverage, Doctor Who (but not the recent one), Veronica Mars, Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes, Japanese anime (Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Full Metal Alchemist, Full Metal Panic, Samurai Champloo, Midori No Hibi, Mahoromatic), Kochanski-free Red Dwarf and classic kid's TV |
| Favorite Music | Very eclectic taste, from 60's music to classical, from world music to mainstream pop, from indie to rock and also a lot of film and TV soundtracks. Favourite bands: Travis, blur, Gorillaz, Levellers, Frankie Valli, Sarah McLachlan, Will Young, Lighthouse Family, They Might Be Giants, The Cure, The Smiths and James |
| Favorite Books | Anything by the Brontes, Shakespeare (especially Hamlet and Much Ado About Nothing), Victorian Literature, the Romantics, Gone with the Wind, Sense and Sensibility, Terry Pratchett, Lord of the Rings, philosophical literature |
