Biography

I was educated at the University of Essex (MA) and the University of Nottingham (PhD). During and after my doctoral studies, I worked on a number of funded research projects. This included working on two projects funded by the University's HERMES awards that enabled the establishment of a professional communication research and consultancy centre, Linguistic Profiling for Professionals.

In 2016, I worked as Research Fellow on an ESRC-funded project titled Simulating Medical Talk, analysing healthcare communication in clinical settings. Between 2020-2022, I was a mentor on a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) project with the School of Psychology and creative marketing agency, Together. This project was funded by Innovate UK and AHRC.

I currently carry out research, teaching and research-informed training and consultancy work in the broader area of professional communication, and specifically talk at and around work and health, and language, gender and sexuality. Over the years, I have worked with a number of public, private and third sector organisations, applying findings of linguistics research to inform professional practice.

I am currently a Director of Assessment in the School of English.
