Research Experience 

Expedition Leader, Analysing Lyngen's Processes and Collapse - Arctic Norway June 2026
For my dissertation, I led a research expedition to Koppangsbreen, a glacier situated in Arcitc Norway supported by the Royal Geographical Society (RGS) 'Explore' Grant, the Arctic University of Norway, and Buffalo Systems.

Originally,  this research was intended for  Laguna Glacier in Bolivia. The established plan? Spend 3 weeks at 5,500masl to collect data on ablation (ice-mass loss) and establish a transect of data-loggers up to  Janq'u Uma  (6,427masl).  The project's centre was in collaboration, we planned to: re-instal an  automatic weather station for the (UKRI-Funded) Deplete and Retreat project, and have students join us on a weekly rotation from the Universidad Mayor de San Andrés.

However, One month before flying to La Paz, FCDO Guidelines changed to 'Advice against all but essential travel'. Within a month I shifted the research aims to  Arctic Norway.
