I am an accomplished researcher and educator with a strong focus on climate and environmental psychology. My work centers on understanding how young people experience and respond to a changing climate, leveraging over two decades of experience in academia and community development. I excel in fostering multidisciplinary collaboration, mentoring emerging scholars, and leading impactful research projects. My dedication to excellence and a collaborative approach make me a valuable asset in any professional setting.I have been Co-investigator on two UKRI funded projects; VIP-CLEAR (Voices in a Pandemic: Children's Lockdown Experiences Applied to Recovery - https://www.vip-clear.org/), and CCC-Catapult ( Challenging the Climate Crisis: Children’s Agency to TAckle Policy Underpinned by Learning for Transformation - https://ccc-catapult.org/). My most recent projects 'Reading for the Climate' explored how climate literature can engage young people in the climate crisis. The research project 'Buzzing about Bees' examined the potential for storytelling and dance to engage young people with the issues of bee decline (https://accessnetwork.uk/buzzing-about-bees-exploring-active-storytelling-for-transforming-childrens-environmental-agency/).
