Biography
I am a Lecturer and Health Psychologist teaching and researching at the intersections between education, medicine and psychology. I am a pluralist researcher but my starting point involves using a variety of qualitative techniques and recent innovations in the field such as photo-elicitation, to uncover and document the complex narratives associated with lived experiences. These lived experiences range from adjusting to chronic illness, resilience in later life, lifelong learning and wellbeing, and post-graduate adjustment to studying abroad. As well as offering teaching, supervision and research in Psychology, I am also the postgraduate convenor for our existing cohort of PhD students who belong to the Research Group (RTG) - Social Justice, Place and Lifelong Education
