Public policy researcher and doctoral candidate with expertise spanning law, governance, and development policy. I hold an MA in Public Policy from Queen Mary University of London and an LLB from the University of Sheffield. My research focuses on Africa, urban development, governance, and political economy, with a particular interest in how institutions and public policy shape social and environmental outcomes. Through my academic and professional experience, I have developed strong research, analytical, and stakeholder engagement skills, applying them to issues including sustainable development, urban governance, and institutional reform. I am passionate about producing policy-relevant research that contributes to inclusive development and practical solutions to complex public challenges.
