Ulster University

I am a research associate at Ulster University, examining the use of technology in the agri-food sector and how it can help increase efficiencies, environmental management, and traceability. This has been mainly self-lead and has required stakeholder engagement with participants from farmers to consumers. Studying Leadership for Sustainable Development [MSc at Queen’s University Belfast] and Economic History and Business [Ma Hons at Edinburgh University] I became ever more fascinated about the need for a holistic approach to sustainability. I want to learn about what other sectors are doing, expand my general knowledge, and interact with young leaders in the field.
