Background:

In 2020 I graduated from the University of Bristol and University of Oslo with a Masters focusing on Southern Ocean Argo data analysis. My interest in polar science first developed from a 6-month exchange at University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS), where I was fortunate enough to undertake research with world leaders in Ocean and Climate Physics. 

I currently work for the UK Met Office as a Global-Coupled Scientist for the Unified Model Partnership. The role is incredible as I have the opportunity to work at the forefront of climate model development and facilitate international collaboration for code development between UM partners in New Zealand, Australia, Korea, Singapore, South Africa and USA.

Outside of work, I love being outdoors. Mainly running, climbing and surfing… but anything that involves moving in nature!
