Georgina Hunt

Bartender and Social Media Manager in Chorley, United Kingdom

All over social media we describe ourselves in a "140 Characters or less" a little like social media speed dating.

Facebook: 'i love tea ☕️'

Twitter: 'UoW Multidisciplinary graduate with the traits of someone four times my age, ironically tech savvy'

Instagram: 'Northern soul lost in the South, tea is my preferred hot beverage. 🦄. Vegetarian & LUSH addict. 🐸.'

Does that paint a perfect description?

Creating a perfectionist online persona and the way we interact with social media deeply captivates me. Looking at analytics and statistics and the patterns that are emerging is fascinating, I like to study it and watch it evolve.

I'm a soon to be a graduate with a BA (Hons) in Contemporary Media Practice. Through the course it has allowed me to become a multi-displinary graduate with a wide range of skills in film-making such as art direction and editing, and digital photography. It has also allowed me to find and build niché skills in interactive media, like using programs Arduino and Processing. This has developed and led me to wanting a career within social media.

Other than education, I've been working as team leader for the pub chain Wetherspoons in the busiest pub in the company. Though not directly linked, it has taught me transferable skills such as: managing a team, problem solving under pressure, dealing with un-cooperative individuals, working towards targets and general people skills.
