I am currently in my third year of my PhD at the Sustainability Research Institute at the University of Leeds. My project uses an agent-based model to look at agricultural water abstractions in response to climate change and policies in East Anglia, UK. Previous to this, I studied for a BSc in Marine and Coastal Resource Management at the University of Aberdeen and an MSc in Catchment Dynamics and Management at the University of Leeds. The purpose of the model is to understand under which policy and climate change scenarios sustainable water resource management emerges from decisions and interactions of water abstraction licence holders.
