Hello! I'm a third year Biology student at the University of Leeds and I'm part of the 2024 Scholars cohort. I've just finished an industrial placement working in digital marketing, looking to build expertise in the sustainable health & tech space. 

I have been trying to figure people out for a long time and I thought what better way than to explore the wonders of neuroscience in my first year research project!? 

I'm currenly on my LiA with the Timothy Smith Network in Boston, USA. I'm looking forward to working with students of all ages to teach and inspire them about the intersections of biology and technology. 

I'm also a member of the 2026 Undergraduate Laidlaw Advisory Board, where I hope to provide strategic advice and improvements to the Laidlaw programme to ensure future scholars can thrive. 

If you want to chat about books, the economic/political state of the world right now, or just life - feel free to drop me a message! :)
