I am a researcher based at the Medical Research Council in Cape Town, South Africa. I am very priviledged to be working on a global initiative called the Sexual Violence Research Intiative which is hosted by the MRC and funded by Oak Foundation, GFHR and the MRC. I hold a Master's degree in Sociology (Gender Studies) and am currently working on ideas for my PhD in Public Health. I love working in this field and hope for this platform to add as another pillar in my development as emering researcher in the field of sexual violence.
