When I was at West Kirby, at first I didn't make it easy on myself.  Having been in and out of mainstream settings, I did not trust the support and nurture that West Kirby provided.  I did start to trust and believe in myself to achieve and succeed.  When I left West Kirby, went to Warrington and Vale College and studied an Arts Diploma and then went on to study an Arts foundation course.  I secured a place at university and graduated with a 2:1 with a Bachelor of Arts Honors Degree in Game Art.  I am currently working on work for an art exhibition which should be displayed later this year.  My career journey whilst studying has been in the hospitality sector.  I am thinking about becoming a teaching assistant in the future.  I would particularly like to work with children with special needs.  Before attending West Kirby,I never thought I would have dreamed of graduating from university. West Kirby provided me with skills, support and inner confidence to achieve!

Daizie we are so proud of you and we look forward to seeing your exhibition!
