Associate Consultant
A public affairs professional with a passion for politics and a focus on financial services
As an Associate Consultant, I support financial services clients with policy research, analysis, content creation and stakeholder engagement, helping them respond to an ever-evolving political landscape.
Before joining 56° North, I worked at a political monitoring company, where I supported clients across financial services, energy, environment and retail sectors, producing reports to keep them informed of key political and policy developments. I also interned at a communications consultancy, where I supported political engagement and the delivery of parliamentary events.
I particularly enjoy the fast-paced nature of public affairs and the collaborative environment, partnering with clients and colleagues to achieve their strategic goals.
I studied at the University of Manchester, including a year abroad at Freie Universität Berlin, before completing a master’s in Politics and Communication at the London School of Economics. I specialised in campaigning and social movements, and my dissertation on the role of women in conservative social movements was published in the LSE 2024 Dissertation Series.
And… I like to travel to different countries to run half marathons – my latest was the Ibiza half marathon in Spain last year.
