MSC EMERGING ECONOMIES & INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT, KCL

During my undergraduate degree, I chose to study modules in ‘Business Analysis’ and ‘Work and Employment in Context’. My interest in these areas, paired with my experience working abroad with several academic institutions, has inspired me to further my knowledge in international development, specifically in emerging economies.

Through my studies, I wish to research the development of institutions and how change can be implemented within them to increase opportunities available to underrepresented groups. Aside from my academic interests, I have worked with Human Appeal on charity projects, worked as a fundraising officer for the Amnesty International Society at QMUL, and volunteered with special needs children in Morocco.
