Biography

I hold an undergraduate degree in Law and Politics, as well as a master’s in Politics and Public Policy from Cardiff University. I have worked in Victim Support, Ofgem and Tenovus Cancer Care. 

Currently, I work with young people and children in Cardiff, working with the Grange Pavilion Youth Forum CIC and Ffair Jobs CIC, both operating as a social enterprise to engage, listen, platform and champion young people, fair work and ensuring young people can strategically play a more central role in what happens in the city.

I also sit on the trustee boards of Children in Wales, Grange Pavilion CIO, Welsh Centre for International Affairs, Cynnal Cymru, Youth Cymru, TEAM Collective Cymru, Home4U and Asylum Justice.
