PhD researcher in the School of Geography and Planning. Recipient of ESRC Doctoral Training Partnership 2022, in collaboration with Cardiff Council, Llamau and the Welsh Refugee Council.

The aim is to improve our current understanding of refugee homelessness prevention at the intersection of hostile migration policies, housing and welfare.
