Growing up internationally and studying a creative course in Nottingham has developed Anouk’s creative identity. Through the course she was able to grow into the creative world of theatre, as well as tackling important themes and topics that shape the society around us. Anouk’s interests lie in sustainability, languages, and working with children. The course and the University provided opportunities to further explore and engage with all three, influencing her design outcomes and dissertation research. Anouk will continue her education by studying a PGCE in London. In the future she aims to combine teaching, sustainability, and design in a unique and approachable way.
