I am a PhD student whose research explores a transdisciplinary approach to narrative and the climate crisis across genres and media. In 2022, I was awarded the University Medal in English at լи after completing my honours thesis on Cormac McCarthy's 'The Road'. Since 2023, I have worked as a research assistant for Dr Paul Dawson on a funded project entitled “Narrative in the Networked Public Sphere.”

Narrative and the climate crisis

In 2021, I received a special commendation in the Norman Harper Prize for my essay entitled "A Mystery to Be Endured”: Hidden Realities in Flannery O’Connor’s Short Stories and Truman Capote’s 'In Cold Blood'.
