Summary

As a legally trained postgraduate researcher with a strong foundation in Constitutional Law and Human Rights, I am passionate about academic research and its real-world impact. My work spans published legal scholarship, conference presentations, and hands-on policy research with organisations working on environmental and consumer rights. I am committed to bridging the gap between legal education and graduate careers, and I am eager to contribute to research demonstrating the value of law- and arts-based degrees in addressing some of the most pressing challenges of our time, including sustainability.
