What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities in research, policy analysis, and global affairs where I can contribute data-driven insights and impactful policy development within government, think tanks, NGOs, or international organisations.

At CHM Tech Global, I build Power BI dashboards and automate SQL and Python reporting to give leaders real-time sales and tariff insights, reducing manual effort by 30% and forecasting errors by 15%.

Across Fordshire Ltd, Family Lives, Quantum Analytics NG, and Fordshire Mining and Energy Services, I’ve used data analysis, market research, process improvement, and stakeholder collaboration to improve operational efficiency, customer outcomes, compliance, and decision-making. My work has supported cost savings, increased retention, streamlined workflows, and strengthened reporting.

With MA qualifications in International Relations with Advanced Research and Peace and Conflict Studies, I translate geopolitical trends, policy impacts, and complex research into clear, evidence-based intelligence. I’m interested in contributing to impactful research, policy development, and global affairs work.
