What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply safeguarding, investigation and research skills in collaborative, mission-driven teams that value practical problem-solving, learning, and compassionate client-centred work.

I am a conscientious and hard-working sociologist with a BSc (Hons) in Sociology and Criminology from the University of Exeter and study-abroad experience at University College Cork. I bring frontline safeguarding and investigative experience from work as a police officer and practical care experience supporting someone with severe Parkinson's and dementia, alongside volunteering in homelessness support and human rights campaign work.

I excel at practical problem-solving, multi-tasking in high-pressure environments, and collaborating with partner agencies to deliver results. I am dependable, adaptable, fluent in Italian, and proficient with Word, Excel, PowerPoint and R Studio; I apply these skills to research, case-building, community engagement and compassionate person-centred care.
