London Residencies and Master of Science Degree

Autumn heads to Europe on another international tour! This year she'll be embarking solo and working the European piano bar circuit at the continent's foremost luxury hotels, piano bars, and cabarets as a piano / vocalist. Look for Autumn everywhere from the Netherlands and Norway to Crotia and Prague!

Shortly after the conclusion of the tour, Autumn officially makes the move to Central London! She holds residencies at London’s most iconic venues including The Savoy, The Dorchester, The Intercontinental, The Corinthia Hotel, and the Royal Auto Club. Additionally, you can find Autumn at regular performances throughout London at venues such as The Westbury Hotel, Toulouse Latrec Jazz Club, 45 Park Lane, Crown Aspinal’s London, The Bassoon Bar, The Four Seasons Mayfair, Park Plaza Westminster, Piano Kensington, The Polo Bar, The Intercontinental, and Jack Solomon’s Speakeasy in Soho, along with obtaining her Masters of Science Degree from University College London.

During the years of nightly shows and late night rehearsals, Autumn spent her day times volunteering at a Refugee Center in Southern California and working with the United Nations Association of the United States of America. After months of helping to develop and launch the job coaching program at Voice of Refugees, and chairing several committees for the UNA, Autumn was appointed to the Board of Directors. In addition to fostering awareness and supporting the UN Global Goals through various national initiatives and programs, highlights included the organisation of several large scale events to raise awareness for prominent human rights issues and increased U.S. involvement with the UN, raising thousands for the Adopt a Future Campaign, advocating directly to politicians and dignitaries throughout California; and contributing in various capacities to the Advocacy Committee, HeForShe Campaign Committee, Internship Development Committee, the Adopt a Future campaign, and graduating from the Young Professionals Program.

Through hands on immersion with issues such as human trafficking, gender equality, educational equality, genocide awareness and prevention, sustainable energy and climate action, and forced migration, Autumn’s growing passion for human rights and international relations eventually led to her decision to pursue higher education. She relocated to London and obtained a MASTER OF SCIENCE degree from UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON (consistently ranked as one of the top ten universities in the world), with special focus on human rights, international law, international politics, philosophy of ethics, and qualitative / quantitative research methods. The degree culminated in a DISTINCTION AWARDED to her dissertation on the ‘Reconceptualisation and Mobilisation of Pacifism as a Normative Framework for the Contemporary International System to Combat Large Scale Human Rights Violations through Pre-Conflict Monitoring, De-escalation Mechanisms, and Structural Reform.’

Autumn was hired as a Senior Executive officer with the United Kingdom’s Civil Service immediatly after graduation, she spent her time during the Covid Lockdown working in the Emergency Response Department and continues to enjoy volunteering on the Executive Committee for the United Nations Association London and southeast Regional Branch and working towards her goals of international diplomacy, large scale peace work, and human rights activism; and volunteering digitally with refugee relocation and assistance.
