Welcome,
I am an interdisciplinary researcher in Digital Health, Digital Society, and Digital Intimacies. I have an interest in social media, influencer cultures and digital technologies and their role in society, particularly where they intersect with health, sexualities and education. I specialise in the use of digital methods and qualitative research, including the use of big data from social media.
I have worked with a range of external stakeholders including the NHS, Health Education England, National Breast Imaging Academy, Kidney Care UK and the Greater Manchester Health and Social Care Partnership. I am passionate about creative dissemination of research and engaging audiences visually with research findings.
On this website you can find a range of resources related to my work, as well as a variety of ways to get in touch for research collaboration, media requests or a good old chat!
