Jack Harris

Hi, my name’s Jack Harris. I’m 22 years old and currently studying a postgraduate degree in Urban Design at Newcastle University. I’m originally from Greenwich, London and hope to one day move and work abroad within my discipline.
Having started off my undergraduate degree as an Urban Planner my experience in Urban Design did not really begin until my year out placement at Sunderland City Council. I knew I had an interest in design that was developed during select modules relating to the discipline within my undergraduate degree. However, it was not until I worked in practise that I knew it was the direction in which I wanted to take my career.
When I’m not working in University I tend to try to keep myself active by participating in team based sports and exercise (Football, Swimming). I also enjoy spending my time with friends taking part in quizzes and watching sports events around Newcastle.
