Hi, I’m Heather.

I’m an International Relations researcher. I study the place of the natural world in the international order, and in particular how harm to nature comes to count as violence in some cases, and as development in others.

I’ve just finished an MSc in International Relations (Research) at LSE. Before that, I read Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE) at Oxford, graduating with First-Class Honours and the Gibbs Prize in Politics. This summer, I was a Research Intern at the Ditchley Foundation.

You can read about my research, see my CV, or say hello at heather.hz.li@gmail.com.

Outside of work, I coach debate and attempt to catch up on my TBR backlog. Right now, I’m reading Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston.
