I am a PhD Candidate in Children's Literature at the Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge. My research looks at the history and depiction of outer space colonialism and the Walt Disney Company.

My public facing writing has appeared in the Jacobin and I have appeared on the Anti-Dystopians podcast.

The broader thematic interests of my work revolve around public history and education, especially how culture and media affect the construction of historical narratives and memory. I have a background in Ancient History and received my Masters by Research in Classics and Ancient History from the University of Exeter in 2021, and my BA in Ancient History from University of Exeter in 2018. My master's thesis Babylon in the Greek Imaginaire explored ancient orientalism and impressions of Babylon in Greek literature and novels.

In addition to my academic research, I write and develop public facing historical and educational material. I founded and previously ran my own local tour guide company in Cambridge and created an audio tour on the women of Cambridge. In addition, I do freelance writing projects for educational exhibits, including at English Heritage and historical sites, as well as promotional and outreach material, such as collaborating with the Cambridge Biomedical Campus.

I have experience in the film industry and am currently developing independent television and film scripts that engage with many of the core themes of my research. In my free time, I am a shodan [black belt] in aikido and am working towards my coaching license.
