I started at the University on a fixed term contract as a Programme Administrator at our beautiful Greenlands campus. I was a recent graduate, not entirely sure what I wanted to do as a career, but knew that I wanted to work in the charity or education sector, supporting others to achieve their goals as well as utilise my organisational skills.
We began working together as artists, writers and curators when we met in high school in Jerusalem, before being drawn to the UK for its vibrant art, music and culture.
Today, we are joint lecturers in Fine Art and co-directors of postgraduate research in Art at the University of Reading, and have worked in the Department for over seven years across a range of roles.
I joined the University of Reading in 2017 as a Lecturer in the Department of Real Estate and Planning, part of the Henley Business School; I was attracted by the department’s worldwide reputation. Since this time, I feel particularly grateful and happy to work in a collegiate, diverse, and supportive environment.
We get a lot of enquiries at Henley Business School, and in my role I get to speak to and meet new people pretty much all the time. I do some photography for the department as well, including events. I've been here a year and it's quite varied; no two days are the same.
I also own a martial arts club, All Abilities Martial Art. It's for everyone, any ability, we're keen to emphasise it's inclusive. We practice Aiki-JuJitsu, which is not sport-based but focused on self-defence.
