About me
MA graduate from University College London. With a background in research, community engagement and visual art, I am passionate about harnessing data to tell stories and supporting organisations to influence positive and lasting change. I love having conversations and connecting with people, whether in person or online. I strive to make complex ideas accessible and easy to understand. I care deeply about environmental and sustainability issues and am inspired by permaculture principles and design. I enjoy cooking, particularly baking - I recently discovered the joy of dough! Finally, I love movement, so when I'm not working, you will most likely find me training at my local climbing gym.

    MA in Comparative Art and Archaeology Activities and societies: UCL Climbing & Mountaineering ClubActivities and societies: UCL Climbing & Mountaineering Club Degree focussed on approaches to sociological and anthropological interpretations of the art of pre-modern societies. I developed my qualitative research skills, with a focus on descriptive and comparative research methods. For my dissertation, I explored the use of art and state imagery to negotiate and navigate power structures. I am particularly interested in the art, architecture and ethnohistory of Mesoamerica. Modules included: • Art: Interpretation and Explanation • Archaeology of Hunter-Gatherers from the Emergence of Modern Humans • Making and Meaning in Ancient Roman Art • Aztec Archaeology: Codices and Ethnohistory • Maya Art, Architecture and Archaeology
