Biography
I am an experienced academic researcher with a track record of delivering on all aspects of social and health focused mixed methods studies. I have specific expertise in qualitative research and analyses and can demonstrate comprehensive understanding and application of NVivo 14 data management software.
I have worked as a researcher on 11 research projects at four Scottish universities. Research projects have included feasibility and pilot studies right through to complex multisite randomised controlled trials including formal process evaluations. This is in addition to my existing role with Social and Public Health Sciences Unit/Medical Research Council.
I studied Community Education at the University of Strathclyde and specialised in Community Development. This area of study relates directly to my ongoing research interests working with marginalised groups, systems and service developments, and communities of interest.
I have recently completed an MSc at University of Strathclyde in Person Centred Counselling and Psychotherapy.
