Testimonials
"Pippa Vaughan has been a student of mine on the BA (Hons) Creative Events Management degree course since September 2014, and has proven to be exceptional in several respects.
Firstly, Pippa is very intelligent. She has consistently proved to be a most diligent member her year group, demonstrating a deep understanding of the operational elements of event design, the many creative aspects required in events together with the marketing and promotion of events. Furthermore, her questions are always thoughtful and penetrating.
Secondly, Pippa is hard working. She has consistently worked many extra hours over her academic years. I vividly recall coming into the library late in the evening and finding her at work with her assignment. Pippa invariably finished assessments well in advance of our projected dates, and was always cheerful during this intense period, and a genuine pleasure to teach on the course.
Thirdly, Pippa is very good at working with other people. She is considerate and sensitive, but also assertive in her decision-making and problem solving. Pippa is not only good-humoured and friendly, but is also good at gauging other people's level of knowledge and attitudes.
All in all, I am sure that she would benefit from working in your organisation. Given her great intelligence and sensitivity, I am sure that she could put any opportunity that you can provide to good use.
In short, I give Pippa my highest recommendation, and very much hope that any future employer or collaborator judges her application favourably."

"Pippa volunteered to help us during the Falmouth Oyster Festival doing various duties that were asked of her, including being the main point of contact on the information desk. She was always punctual, hard working with a friendly and approachable manner. Pippa was able to work in a team and independently using her initiative to get jobs done. She's a real asset to any team and it was a pleasure to have her as one of our crew during the 4 days."

"Pippa is an energetic, responsible and extremely competent team member. With her proactive attitude, Pippa quickly picked up the ropes of the day to day running of our Leisure Centre and excelled in her customer facing role.
Having only worked with us for a short time, she dealt well with the fast paced environment and I was more than happy to leave her in charge of the whole facility as required. A lively and brilliant addition to our team!"
