Hi, I'm Pauline.

People also call me Powerhouse.

To summarise, I am a...

📱 Digital DevOps Graduate

In September 2018, I joined BT's exciting Graduate Scheme working in the EE Digital Engineering team. Lasting 2 years, this development programme allows four 6-month rotations across the different delivery teams in EE.

My first rotation is in Digital Architecture which focuses on early digital engagement, impact assessments and a high-level overview of all the systems and how they interact. Whilst this rotation is more towards the business side, my next rotation is closer to technology and coding. The vast variety and endless opportunity to learn different things in each team is what makes this programme fantastic!

13 years ago, I started writing on the web.

My blog has evolved over time, I now write about reflections of my experiences for both my self development journey (personal and professional growth) as well as daily adventures in life.

Examples of the topics I cover include monthly reflections, equality in STEM, well-being, and communicating science simply. A full list of topics can be found here.

Working on my blog has allowed me to develop:

‣ An understanding how to effectively communicate on different digital channels.
‣ An understanding on SEO to drive more leads.
‣ The ability to analyse data from Google Analytics to identify trends to maximise the performance of content. My blog gets an average of 1,500 vistors per month.
‣ Relationships by collaborating with brands, individuals and companies on projects that align with my values.

I have also started branching out into YouTube and have worked with different people on communicating messages across to my auidence. Across social media, I have a reach of approximately 9,000 people around the world.

🎓 A recent graduate

...at the University of Sheffield where I obtained an undergraduate degree in BSc (Hons) Biomedical Sciences with Employment Experience.

After my second year, I secured a placement year at the University of Sheffield in a Communications and External Engagement role. Although the placement was not a typical one to be taken by BMS students, I learnt a lot from the year. My contribution over the year, led me to be selected as a Finalist for "Best Intern" at the National Employability Awards 2018.

Inspired by my placement, I always encourage students to not let their degree restrict them to what they can do and look beyond the box.
