I joined the university in 2019, after working as a Research Associate at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals/Leeds Beckett University on the Cancer, Fertility and Me (CFM) Study, funded by Yorkshire Cancer Research, and at the University of Sheffield. The CFM study was an observational, multi-centre study developing and evaluating a patient decision-aid for women of reproductive age diagnosed with cancer and contemplating fertility preservation before starting their treatment.

I am a mixed-methods psychologist, with a PhD in Health Psychology/Medicine from the University of Sheffield. I also hold a MSc in Psychological Research Methods (awarded with Distinction, University of Sheffield) and a BSc in Psychology (awarded First Class, with Honours, Sheffield Hallam University).

My main research interests are decision-making (especially in the context of life-limiting, life-threatening illness and rare disease), women’s health, health literacy and alcohol use. I have a particular interest in systematic reviews.
