In 2004 I graduated from Plymouth University with a Bsc (Hons) in Psychology and then qualified as a Clinical Hypnotherapist through the London College of Clinical Hypnosis. I practised as a therapist for several years and in 2011 I returned to academia to start my PhD in Cognitive Psychology at Plymouth University. My thesis explored Dual Processing and Belief-Bias effect in conditional reasoning. My research focused on the impact of cognitive load, individual differences and the role of inhibition and working memory on conditional reasoning. I evaluated my findings against traditional and newer dual processing models of reasoning. In April 2015 I joined the Collaboration for the Advancement of Medical Education Research & Assessment (CAMERA) at Plymouth University Peninsula Schools of Medicine and Dentistry. I conducted both qualitative and quantitative research on the UMbRELLA (UK Medical Revalidation Evaluation collaboration) project, with a focus on the decision-making processes of senior management. The team was led by Dr Julian Archer MD and I worked closely with the Psychometrics department. I currently work as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Macquarie University continuing my research in thinking, reasoning and decision making. Specifically, I investigate the boundaries of logical intuition, the impact of hypnosis on logic and belief evaluation and the effect of non-invasive brain stimulation on human reasoning. Others research projects include; moral engagement in video games, transliminality, training and uncertainty.
