I joined Re:State in November 2025 as a Research Assistant. I am a recent MSc Public Policy graduate with a background in Economics. I am particularly interested in AI policy and public sector reform and firmly believe in the power of reform to drive meaningful impact.

My favourite reformer is.... 

Elinor Ostrom, a reformer of ideas if I may say so, for the way she's redefined how we think about governance and the political economy.

What gets you out of bed in the morning? 

Sunlight, or for a great part of the year, just light (unfortunately).
