About
Having completed a master’s programme in International Journalism from Cardiff University in 2022, I have written about various subjects including culture, politics, social justice, mental health, LGBTQ+ issues and gender. My undergraduate degree in life sciences has equipped me to explore my passion for reporting on health, science and the environment.
