About me
I am a passionate and versatile professional with a rich background in writing, event management, and community engagement. My academic journey at the University of Oxford and King's College London has equipped me with a strong analytical foundation and a broad perspective on integrating scholarly research with practical application. In particular, my involvement with Queer and the Classical (QATC) has deepened my expertise in fostering critical discussions, events management, and EDI practices, highlighting my commitment to diversity and innovative thinking. Currently, I am exploring new opportunities to leverage my skills in communication, project management, and creative thinking to contribute to dynamic teams and impactful projects. I am enthusiastic about combining my diverse experiences to drive meaningful change and innovation in any professional setting.
