Profile: I completed my PhD in the School of Nursing and Midwifery (2013-2017) under the supervision of Dr. Tony Ryan and Dr. Jill Thompson. This explored the experiences of adults with learning disabilities and their families at a time of transition from co-residing with family to living independently in the community.

Since 2016, I have worked as a Research Associate in the School of Nursing and Midwifery. I am currently involved in researching issues related to nursing workforce, education and evaluation, as part of the strategic research alliance between the Royal College of Nursing and the School of Nursing and Midwifery. Alongside this, I work on several research projects centred on patient experience and have a particular interest in living with mesothelioma.

Research interests

My interests lie in conducting research with patients, family carers and health care professionals to learn from their experiences in order to improve service provision and care delivery. I am interested in a relationship centred approach to care provision. Methodologically, my experience lies in qualitative research, in stand alone and mixed method studies. I endeavour to employ creative and participatory approaches to research.

Current research projects

• A consensus development project exploring safe and effective nursing care in the UK.
• MIMES: Military Mesothelioma Experience Study.
• Being Warm, Being Happy: understanding fuel poverty for people living with a learning disability.
• Mapping the financial support for patients and/ or caregivers of those with a life limiting illness across six countries.
• Zoledronic acid in the management of mesothelioma: qualitative nested study.
