Overview: In support of Rotherham Minster's efforts as a community hub tackling socioeconomic barriers faced by the local community, and to promote Rotherham Minster's Development Fund, I spearheaded the production of Tiny Monks & Saxon Coffins: The Historical Secrets of Rotherham Minster.

I conducted extensive research into the history of the church in order to write the video script.

I also collaborated with members of staff to coordinate access to areas of the building which are usually off-limits to, and therefore rarely seen by, the general public in order to bring the unique and little-known history of Rotherham Minster to light.

I oversaw videography and video production, conducted by James Young, to ensure high production value.

Overview: I supported the Archivist at Hillingdon Museums & Archives, Sarah Harrison, by conducting research and producing this booklet, The Twelve Herbs of Christmas, for a festive event at Eastcote House Gardens, in Pinner, northwest London. The event included a talk on the history of the stately home, its kitchen garden, and the various herbs and spices now popular in festive cooking.

I used digitised medieval scrolls and illuminated manuscripts to collate historical recipes using herbs and spices grown within the walled kitchen garden of Eastcote House.

I also used secondary sources to trace the origins, medicinal uses, and other historical information about these select festive seasonings.

Overview: I supported the Archivist of Hillingdon Museums & Archive, Sarah Harrison, in tracing the history of specific suburbs and addresses within the London Borough of Hillingdon, previously areas of Middlesex. The research predominantly focused on the various uses of buildings from their construction - usually in the early 20th century - to the modern day.

This research heavily relied on census records and digitised newspapers to create a timeline of individual addresses. I also used both primary and secondary sources such as governmental documents, articles, and books to gather general historical information about the area's development.

I also promoted public engagement through local social media groups. I made requests from group members for vintage photographs and local stories (used with permission).
