Mitchell Gallagher

Born and raised in North Yorkshire, England, Mitchell has developed a diverse and accomplished profile. His proficiency in Mandarin stems from over six years of professional experience in China, where his contributions to education were honored with an honorary award from the Beijing College of Finance & Commerce. Prior to graduation, his commitment to supporting and developing first-year undergraduate students was recognized with a gold WoW certificate from Liverpool John Moores University. During his graduate studies at the University of Sheffield, he was distinguished with the Sheffield Graduate Award. Outside his academic pursuits, Mitchell harbors a keen interest in the works of George Orwell and Chinese calligraphy. An avid football fan, he still insists on the traditional British nomenclature, steadfastly referring to the sport as 'football' rather than 'soccer'.
