Dissertation

I completed my MA/MSc in International and World History at Columbia University and the London School of Economics in 2024. My dissertation investigated Lusophone African socialism’s intellectual, social and political impact on East Timorese nationalism following the Carnation Revolution in Portugal. Since graduating, I have worked as a peer reviewer for the University of Timor Lorosa’e’s Arts and Humanities journal, Diálogos and for the London Borough of Newham’s public library service. Passionate about archival access, community work, and museums, she now works for the Victoria and Albert Museum’s new Storehouse in East London.
