January 2014 | Alumni Profiles

This month we talk about Edinburgh's influence and impact with the Guardian's Northern Editor, Scotland's Paralegal of the Year, our Alumni Ambassador in Ecuador, Canada's iron woman and a clinical psychologist with literary credentials.

We are interested in the role that the University has played in your life, either directly - in terms of skills and knowledge - or indirectly, via friends, experiences or chance encounters.

Please get in touch and you and your experiences could feature on our website.
