Summary

Highly organised and reliable criminology student awaiting final degree classification, with a strong academic interest in domestic violence, injustice, and discrimination, explored in depth through my dissertation research. With a naturally caring and enthusiastic personality, I thrive in collaborative environments and remain open-minded when facing new challenges. I am eager to apply my criminology knowledge in a full-time role that supports vulnerable communities and contributes to meaningful change in the justice sector.
