Summary
I am a motivated and adaptable graduate who achieved a Master’s in International Peace and Security and a Bachelor’s in War Studies from King’s College London. My academic background in international relations and security studies is complimented by three years of traveling and working in a range of industries, including farming, cattle ranching, and various hospitality positions. These diverse experiences have strengthened my problem-solving, communication, and organisational skills. I’m now looking to apply my knowledge and hands-on experience to a career where I can contribute to meaningful global change.
