I’m the Scholar Engagement Advisor at Saïd Business School, University of Oxford, where I oversee two of the School’s prestigious and impact-driven scholarships:  the Laidlaw Scholarship and the Oxford–Pershing Square Graduate Scholarship. In this role, I support scholars from the application stage through to their time on course, acting as a key liaison between them, the School, and the respective foundations. My work includes scholar communications, events and programming, reporting, and community-building. I bring over a decade of experience across finance, higher education, events and marketing. Before joining Oxford Saïd in 2022, I spent nearly five years at the University of Oxford’s Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences as a Senior Finance Officer. There, I managed departmental budgets, oversaw journals and recharges (both departmental and cross-departmental), handled student finance, ensured compliance with university financial procedures, and supervised junior team members. Earlier in my career, I worked at Oxford Professional Education Group as Student Finance Manager and In-House Graphic Designer. I managed the Accounts Receivable function, set up student payment plans, led the company’s rebrand, and created all brand collateral. After finishing my studies, I began my career in London with Marriott International, where I worked in sales, events, and marketing.
