About me
I recently graduated in International Relations at the Department of War Studies at King's College London, with research focusing on the construction of national identity through art and literature. While at college, I also directed the annual musical (we did Sondheim's Company), participated in an art exhibition on nationalist politics, assisted the EDI Committee in publishing an 'Internationalising the Curriculum' Handbook and managed a database of art-based peace-building and dialogue movements for an ongoing Art and Reconciliation project. I most recently worked at Beamery, a tech-scale up in London, in their People Team as Impact and Sustainability Intern.
Art and music are amongst the most important parts of who I am, so I would love the opportunity to work on projects at the intersection of art, politics and/or culture. If you've taken the time to read all of this, I'd love to catch up: anshanandmehta@gmail.com
