I came to the College in 2003 as a student – for one year...but I stayed for 3 years as a student, then started working here in August 2006.
 

What is your job at the College ?

I am a Registry Officer but I also deal with Student Admissions.  I speak to Applicants and organise interviews.  I also enrol students when they arrive and I am involved in exams.  I do some other things through the year too and then start again for the next year!

 

How do you enjoy working here and living in Skye ?

I really enjoy working at the college and living in Sleat.  Sometimes I forget that I’m no longer a student!  There is always something happening here and I have some great friends here too.

 

The best thing about SMO

There are a lot of good things about SMO but I think it is great to work here because everyone is so friendly and helpful.  Also i enjoy working with Gaelic.  I went through Gaelic medium Education and always wanted a career involving Gaelic, SMO is a great place for that.
