Biography
I have worked as a tutor in the School of Social & Political Sciences since September 2021 with a background in the subjects of Sociology and Economic & Social History.
My PhD researched news media coverage of the miners' strike 1984-85 and explored the role, agency and memory of vetran reporters who covered the event.
I am currently collobrating with the Glasgow University Media Group on a project that examines news media coverage of the cost of living crisis.
