Biography

I am a lecturer in psychology and a member of the Gambling Research Group at Bournemouth University. I completed an undergraduate degree at Bournemouth University (2011), a second undergraduate degree at the University of Southampton (2014), and then a MSc (2015) and PhD (2020) at the University of Southampton. My PhD was on the topic of social psychology and narcissism. Following this, I worked on a GambleAware-funded post-doc position at Bournemouth University before moving onto a lecturing position at Bournemouth University in 2022. In 2022, I obtained Fellow status with the HEA and completed a Postgraduate Certification in Education Practice.
