Staff Profiles

I am a social and cultural historian of modern Britain. I am currently Research Associate on the Caring Communities: Rethinking Children’s Social Care project, led by Dr Claudia Soares.

Prior to joining Newcastle in October 2024, I held an AHRC Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of Strathclyde, as well as posts at the University of Manchester, University of Stirling and University of Glasgow. I completed my PhD at the University of Strathclyde in 2022, based at the Scottish Oral History Centre.

I have particular interests in histories of care, culture, the city, housing, class and deindustrialisation, and as well as the use of oral history and public history.

I am not currently teaching this academic year.
