Zach Eaton

Zach is senior advisor for the law student support team in the Faculty of Business and Law.

He has been working at The Open University since November 2016, providing advice to new and existing students, either by phone or email.

I’m a postgraduate student at the Open University, however, I started my university education on a OU level 1 general humanities course in 2001. I was the first person in my family to complete a degree, after which I progressed to study a Masters in Education in End of Life Care, and now I’m at PhD level study researching hospice care, so I am proof anyone can do it! I am passionate about people, which includes learning about people, lives, interactions and communication. It is important to balance study, work, family and life and I do this by watching football most weekends, going to live music events and being a member of my local church. My favourite thing about the OU is the friendly, helpful, supportive network of people you are becoming part of!
