I am currently a PhD student based at Queen Mary University London and King’s College London. My PhD is exploring the relationship between trauma, perception and social functioning in displaced groups. My previous experience involves working with an array of populations, both within a clinical and a research setting. This includes people who are displaced, living with dementia, have a learning disability, alongside carers and young people.
