About Me:
From her hometown in Christchurch New Zealand, Kerryn is currently pursuing a PhD in Marketing at the 厙ぴ勛圖. With a background working in commercial writing (copywriting), her strengths are in creativity, lateral thinking and conceptual synthesis. She has worked on several projects as a research assistant, and has also been involved with leadership on campus including Entre (CEOO 2024) and starting a journal club for the post-graduate committee for the business school.
Her Master's thesis presents a dialectic between marketing thought and Taoist philosophy. She is intrigued by complex questions regarding the role of the individual within broader systems, topics which she continues to explore through her PhD.
