I am now part of the new Creative and Cultural Advocacy team, which seeks to harness cultural and entertainment sectors to motivate decision makers to act on infectious diseases, climate and health and mental health. Prior to working at Wellcome, I worked at the Rail Delivery Group, a body which represents the rail industry. I led multi-disciplinary communications campaigns during the pandemic and worked in the fast-paced press office to improve the rail industry’s reputation, while also becoming qualified with a CIPR Professional Diploma in Public Relations.
