Summary

I recently graduated with an MSc in International Relations from the University of Bristol. My research interest is centred on climate change, renewable energy transitions, and sustainability policy analysis. I have hands-on experience in OSINT and SOCMINT-driven data analysis, having worked on gender-responsive climate policies and sustainability research. My Master's dissertation on renewable energy leadership in the Global South earned merit commendation, reflecting my ability to think critically and understand sustainability framework. Additionally, I bring leadership experience from a fast-paced retail environment, where I learned to optimise operations, lead teams, and drive meaningful change.
