I graduated from the University of Oxford with a BA in History in 2019. During my undergraduate degree I became interested in the history of psychiatry, specifically, how we categorise mental illness. I am now studying a Psychology (Conversion) Masters course at the University of St Andrews with a view to completing a doctorate in clinical psychology in the future. I have completed a review article assessing the impact of different disease classifications on rates of stigma towards individuals with schizophrenia and I am in the process of completing a research project on the cognitive dysfunctions associated with sub-clinical depression. I also have experience working in inpatient services caring for individuals with dementia, schizophrenia, and learning difficulties.
