Izzy brings a professional and academic background in qualitative and quantitative research, data visualisation and client management.

Before joining Atalanta, Izzy worked at a market research company specialising in public opinion research, where she was part of the Europe Team. Her research primarily focused on tracking public opinion sentiment in Moldova through conducting and integrating qualitative and quantitative research. Izzy also measured the effectiveness of strategic communications and provided evidence-based recommendations for improvement.

She holds a First-Class BA in International Relations from the University of Exeter and an MSc in International Crimes, Conflict and Criminology from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Her MSc thesis explored the intersection of immigration policy and counterterrorism strategy, and its impact on asylum seekers’ rights. During this time, Izzy also volunteered with Care4Calais as part of her data collection.
