Biography

I am a Masters student in International Development at the University of Oxford where I am currently working on a thesis that looks at the use of local ecological knowledge in social innovation and its translatability into large-scale organizations. Alongside my studies I am working on a start-up called Boresha as part of the first cohort of the Oxford Foundry's Accelerator, LEV8. Boresha is working to increase access to lending to smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa through partnerships with informal aggregators.

Previously I worked for the social enterprise Sparknews where I launched and managed a solutions journalism event with student newspapers from the US, Canada, Mexico, France, and the UK.
