I am currently EU Affairs Officer at the Eastern and Midland Regional Assembly since September 2022. In this role, I primarily have responsibility for both the Urban Contact Point and URBACT National Contact Point roles. I previously worked in the Third Level Sector and taught modules on the European Union, International Relations and Public Policy. I have a PhD in Political Science and International Relations, specializing in EU law-making. I am a former Max Weber Fellow at the European University Institute in Florence.
