Membership and Learning Officer

What I do

I support and connect the accredited members of UKCF. I plan and deliver learning programmes, facilitate membership networking and roll out UKCF strategic initiatives.

About me

I studied Political Science at university with a focus on International Development. I also co-founded a grassroots non profit, focused on promoting local food and sustainable agriculture. Before joining UKCF, I worked as a fundraiser for several years across a range of organisations (including a community foundation!) both at home in Canada and in the UK. I love the community foundation world, and I’m happy to be back!

Outside of work

In my spare time you can find me doing kitchen experiments, tending to my many plants, exploring London’s restaurant scene, and checking out museums and galleries. Having experienced most of my time in the UK in lockdown, I’m keen to get out there and explore!
