My background is in medicine and women’s health, having studied for both degrees at King’s College London.

Although I love my job as an NHS GP and urgent care doctor, I realised the limitations of what we were learning. Why were we not taught about preventative medicine? Why were we not taught about sustainability and the importance of protecting our environment? Why were we not taught about compassion to all beings, and not solely the patient in front of us?

Why were we not taught about the fundamental pillars of health- including food, sleep, relationships, happiness, movement, and nature?

It became clear that we were not being told the whole story, and I began to do my own homework. I began to make the connections.

At the age of ten I stopped eating animals, and then turned vegan during my last years of university. Becoming a vegan activist was the best decision I ever made. I have the most incredible community, and I am empowered and motivated to protect our fellow animals. I hope that I can help you on this journey too.

I started doing charity work and set up a fundraising organisation, Buckets of Love. We support the first vegan school in Uganda, Atlas Vegan Community School, for which I am on the board of directors. We also have built three wells to provide clean water to villages in Tamil Nadu, India.

I became a climate and environmental advocate, with a specific focus on ocean life. I am now a PADI scientific divemaster, and volunteer annually to take out groups of conservationists on marine projects.

I have hosted large scale talks about veganism for the NHS, Royal College of GP’s, Eco Medics, Plant Based Health Professionals, Boomtown Festival, Vegfest, Protect The Wild, Plant Based Treaty UK and more. I am currently taking a masters in Global Health Policy with a focus on further dismantling animal agriculture- until every cage is empty.

Please do not hesitate to reach out if you need advice about how to become a healthy and happy vegan activist! We are all on this journey to make the world a better place together. Collectively, we will not be silenced.
