Amelia Palfreyman

Organising and looking after events down to the small details that make a big difference.

My name is Amelia Palfreyman and I am new to the field of event planning. I am excited to complete my course and learn more about different types of events.

I went to University to study VFX and Post Production of Film and TV, I loved the subject and enjoyed my time there, but after completing my Foundation Degree I realised that a job sat behind a computer working on special effects didn't make full use of my organisational and people skills.

During my time as a student I started organising music events such as "Open Mic" nights or gigs for bands under 18 that were too young to play in bars and pubs. It wasn't until I started organising events that I realised how much I loved doing it, I loved working with different people all the time, the variety of work and the rewarding feeling when you see your hard work come together.

In 2013 I started the course in Event Management, I have already learnt so much and look forward to learning more in the future.
