As Chair of Parallel Histories, I’m looking forward to helping the team drive growth. I’ve seen how effective the Parallel Histories program is in improving students’ critical thinking, speaking, and empathy for other viewpoints, all of which are very significant in improving their life chances.
I’m bringing experience in the education and charity sector and the love of history to the role of chair. Having studied Classics and Arabic at Oxford University, I worked in education in the UK and India before founding Just Like Us, a non-profit that now helps over 5,000 schools tackle LGBT+ bullying in UK secondary schools.
I studied a Masters at Harvard’s Graduate School of Education as a Fulbright Scholar before joining the Behavioral Insights Team where I led major streams of the COVID-19 response in the UK and US. I’m currently Head of the Middle East and North Africa where I lead projects to improve education, wellbeing and sustainability in the region.
