MSC CLIMATE CHANGE, UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON, FACULTY OF SOCIAL AND HISTORICAL SCIENCES

I am a Geography graduate from University College London, currently working as a researcher at Kew
Gardens. I am also an artist. I am determined to address climate injustice, particularly in the Global South which is disproportionately affected by climate change. My commitment to climate science has led me to contribute to the IUCN Red List of Ecosystems, and as an active volunteer for the London Wildlife Trust I am involved in urban conservation practices, including tree restoration and the protection of urban wildlife habitats.

My art serves as a medium for activism, and in particular I specialise in lino printing with a focus on political themes. My artwork has been displayed at local exhibitions and I have led workshops in collaboration with charities such as Restless Beings to teach others various techniques in lino printing. In order to advance my artistic skills I am currently learning traditional calligraphy.
