I've had an incredible start to my Leadership in Action (LiA) project this summer at County Durham Community Foundation (rebranded as Point North), focusing on community engagement and sustainable impact. For more details on my goals and plans, check out my LinkedIn post here. Looking forward to sharing more updates as the project concludes and its impacts unfold.
In complex systems, one learns early that the surface can be a weak tutor, and it is often the tide, not the wave, that shapes the course. With my readings in finance at Durham University, combined with leadership training with the Oxford Character Project, I have tried to make my research and work resemble thoughtful oceanography—careful observation, calibrated instruments, and charts that are trusted precisely because they are modest about what they cannot yet claim to know.
As a Laidlaw Scholar, my approach across research domains remains grounded in certain core values: to respect complexity without being intimidated by it, to value precision over appearance, and to navigate with integrity.
