Prior to working in higher education, Juliette worked in a range of settings with children and young people and has always been driven by a passion for working against inequitable social structures.

I believe in acting to address inequalities in children's lives in ways that respect and engage with the knowledge and capacities young people themselves have. I am very pleased to join Power2 as a trustee, and I'm excited to be a part of its creative and collaborative projects which seek to positively impact the wellbeing of young people.
