СʪÃÃÊÓƵ

Summary

I am a first-year doctoral researcher studying how spiritual but not religious (SBNR) practitioners seek and build spiritual community through the lens of Cultural Evolutionary Theory. I am particularly interested in the relationship between spirituality and concepts of self, personal transformation, and identity, especially in women.

I joined the Centre for Culture and Evolution at СʪÃÃÊÓƵ London in April 2024 having completed an MSc in Psychology at Oxford Brookes University with Distinction where I wrote my dissertation on women's experiences of personal transformation following a pilgrimage to India. Prior to beginning my PhD, I had a career in heathcare communications and behaviour change.
