Sai joined GDA as the Learning and Engagement Officer in 2024. Sai works in collaboration with the Learning Manager to develop and deliver the Learning Programme at GDA. She is passionate about people and empowering those whose voices are underrepresented. She believes in the value of lifelong learning and as such, is motivated to and make learning opportunities accessible for all.

Alongside her role at GDA, Sai is also a visual artist, and graduated from with a Master of Fine Art from the Glasgow School of Art in 2024.

In her previous role as the Project Coordinator for Chisenhale Gallery, Sai supported the delivery of the project 2.8 Million Minds and the development of its manifesto. 2.8 Million Minds is an ongoing, disability justice informed, youth-led project, where young people explore how art and culture can be used to as a tool for sharing their experiences and reimagining mental health support.

Sai’s enthusiasm for working in learning and engagement developed during her time as a member of the young people’s volunteer group at the Tate Galleries, Tate Collective Producers. As a volunteer, she participated in group conversations with the galleries’ curators about the ways they could widen the participation of local young Londoners in the Tate’s learning programme.

In her spare time, Sai enjoys going to exhibitions, being outdoors and spending time with friends and family.
