Welcome from the team: Aye Up! We’re Luke (he/him),Phoebe (she/her) and Yemi (she/her) - official TSR representatives for Sheffield Hallam University. We’re here to help with any questions you might have about Sheffield Hallam and student life in the city of Sheffield.
About Phoebe: 'I graduated with a BA(Honours) in Physical Education and School Sport and then graduated with a Masters in Events Management in 2021. I stayed in Sheffield to work as a Marketing Officer at Hallam and love it here.
'I enjoy living in the centre to go shopping, go out for breakfast at nice cafes. I'm also right next to a few different parks which I walk round most mornings and a short drive away from the Peak District which I also regularly visit. In the evenings I enjoy going out often to various bars, restaurants and clubs, there is a lot to choose from! There is always something new to discover in Sheffield and I’d be happy to help you with questions about what our city has to offer, as well as all the exciting facilities you’ll find at Sheffield Hallam.'
About Yemi: 'I moved to Sheffield in 2019 and started my masters in Digital Media Management at Sheffield Hallam University in 2020. Upon completing my studies, I secured the opportunity to join the university’s marketing team as a Graduate Intern.
'I love the vibrant city life on offer in Sheffield, the people are welcoming and the city in general feels like home for me. Many people move to Sheffield for their studies and tend to remain after their studies; this is what the city does to you.
'I've had the best experience studying at Sheffield Hallam University as an international student with all the various support available across the university. I like the work-life balance that is available at Hallam and in Sheffield as a city. There’s always something to look out for and something to help you unwind from your studies.'
About Luke: 'I moved to Sheffield in 2014 and graduated in 2018 with a BA (Hons) in Public Relations and Media, during my time at Hallam, I played an active role in student politics (both locally and nationally) and spent two terms as LGBT+ Students’ Representative.
+'As a ‘country boy’ living in the city, I love how Sheffield is ‘The Outdoor City’ and I regularly spend my weekends jumping between the city’s two sides, from feeding (and being climbed on by) the squirrels in the Botanical Gardens to eating and drinking my way through the city’s rich food and drink scene. Sheffield is the city that has it all, and I am on hand to answer any questions you have about the city, life at Hallam and what support is available for students (especially LGBTQ+ students).'
We look forward to answering your questions! Luke, Phoebe and Yemi :)
