My background includes broad experience in social science research and issue based analysis, a Master’s degree in Cross-Cultural management and extensive travel experience. Delving into social and economic issues and the underlying causes is a passion of mine. I have proven analytical ability, having planned, written and published large scale research reports. My experience, both as a researcher in a policy think tank and more recently as an educator, have allowed me to hone my communication skills, ability to build relationships across diverse groups and team related skills.
