Millie Court
About Me:
Hey everyone! I recently moved 300 miles away from my family (and my dog) in the South West to the North East to begin my Apprenticeship journey and the start of my career.
This was a big move for me at 18. Everyday, I face new and sometimes challenging situations both in work and in my personal life but I am having so much fun!
I love going to work everyday where I deal with data, do some programming and help improve the quality of our medicines and make sure they reach our patients faster.
