She is a recipient of the Leitner Centre Scholarship and holds an LLM in International Law and Justice from Fordham Law School, New York.

Her research interests range from family law to international law with emphasis on international climate change law.

Her current research interests include Third world approaches to international law (TWAIL) and climate change mitigation, International responsibility for climate change loss and damage in Africa and International climate change litigation.
