ABOUT ME

I completed my undergraduate psychology degree at the University of Wolverhampton in 2007. Upon completion, I went onto study for a MSc in Health Psychology at Aston University in 2008. I then worked at NHS trusts in Sandwell and Shropshire as a Health Improvement Advisor.

​

I then took an interest in Evolutionary Psychology and began studying for my PhD at the University of Wolverhampton, under the supervision of Prof. Ken Manktelow and Dr Niall Galbraith. Whilst competing my PhD, I held a Research Associate post with HEFCE, and then took a full-time post at Coventry University as an Assistant Lecturer in Psychology, primarily teaching and supervising students on the Undergraduate Psychology course.

​

Since then, I have worked as a Lecturer in Psychology at Staffordshire University, and then joined the University of Wolverhampton as a Lecturer in Psychology. Here, I lead the Evolution and Human Behaviour Research Group. 

​

I am an editorial board member for Current Psychology/Basic and Applied Psychology. I am also a member of the Human Behaviour and Evolution Association. Feel free to contact me if you'd like to discuss a PhD or research opportunity.
