With a background in Agricultural Science, a PhD in Bovine Reproductive Physiology, and training in post traumatic stress counselling and support, I joined the university in 2004. After joining, I successfully completed a PGCHE course and a HDip in Organisational Behaviour. I enjoy collaborating in research on issues relating to diversity in the workplace and emotions in decision making in the farming industry.

My research interests span topics such as gender issues - e.g. gender letter writing representation and diversity in STEMM and other industries - and behaviour and attitudes towards employee and animal welfare in the agricultural sector, specifically the pig and dairy industry.
