Profile

With an academic background in Law (Cambridge, BA) and Development Studies (King’s College London, MA), I have built a keen interest in British politics, crime, class, and race relations.

Now pursuing an ESRC-funded PhD at the University of Warwick, my research uses advanced quantitative methods on longitudinal birth-cohort data to examine how perceptions and experiences of crime have changed across and within generations in response to the UK’s evolving economic and socio-political landscape from 1958 to present-day.

Awards:
