I am currently the Secretary for British Pugwash and Coordinator of Student / Young Pugwash. I recently worked for Drone Wars UK as a campaigner, and as a political consultant for the UK branch of the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots.
Since 2005 I have been engaged in peace, disarmament and social justice issues, conducting advocacy, campaign and research work with groups including: Nuclear Information Service (which I was Chair of for 2024-2025), Campaign Against Arms Trade, the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons, Conscience, Oxford Research Group and the Nuclear Education Trust. I was also a co-founder and Director of UK Uncut Legal Action.
In 2018 I completed my PhD exploring the politics of nuclear disarmament at Warwick University. My first book entitled The Politics of Nuclear Disarmament: Obstacles to and Opportunities for Eliminating Nuclear Weapons, was published by Routledge in April 2021.
