Reading through my end of term assignments for Fine Art Language I noticed a reference to our CVs and thought ‘yikes! I know I wrote a CV but when did I last update it?’

So I got mine out, discovered I hadn’t looked at it in more than a year! (where does the time go?) and decided to get it sorted out straight away. But first, I needed to refresh my memory on what should be on it (see link at the end of the page) and with a little guidance from that very helpful website, I’m glad to say, I’ve just finished updating it.

The main thing this experience has taught me is to put a reminder in my phone to review my CV every 3 months and keep on top of it. You never know when it might come in handy! Here’s my updated CV (April 2020).
