For my project, I am researching how to alleviate urban poverty in Ghana by improving access to sustainable energy sources. There are two primary ways of achieving this: improving income generating activities, or improving public infrastructure such as schools and hospitals.

After graduating from my BA Politics with Economics at Loughborough University, I worked at MBA Trading, a global commodities and currency trader, before working as a Research Assistant at the Departamento de Estado Cuernavaca in Mexico. I then returned to Loughborough for my MSc International Financial and Political Relations and went straight into my PhD from there.
