During my summer course in UCL, I had the opportunity to spend several weeks closely alongside her, attending classes, working through assignments, exploring cafés and walking extensively across London. She is lively, passionate and deeply curious, with an energy that naturally draws people in. She never approaches learning passively and consistently challenges assumptions, questions methodologies and seeks a deeper understanding of the work at hand. Conversations with her are thoughtful, engaging and often humorous, marked by genuine enthusiasm and clarity of purpose. Time spent with her was effortless, and even long walks never felt long. She is intellectually driven and a warm, memorable presence, and I’m grateful to have shared that chapter together.
