About

I hold an MSc in Environmental Policy and a BA in International Relations. Throughout my academic career I have developed knowledge and skills in the areas of political science, environmental policy, sustainability and change management.

In my professional experience I have proven to be an excellent researcher, proficient in the areas of data compilation and analysis, displaying a meticulous approach to organising projects, multi-tasking, and structuring work delivery across dynamic teams. I have specialised expertise in relation to climate policy, sustainability reporting, ESG, CSRD, strategy development, stakeholder engagement and training.

I am a confident communicator, team leader, critical thinker and problem solver. I thrive in environments where I can be creative, passionate and solution oriented.
