About
I have been a member of Adjunct Faculty at Ȧ Business School since 2008. Following a career in training and development with blue chip management consultancies, I have taught Organisational Behaviour and HRM. I have also provided academic skills advice as part of the Academic Success Team. I currently act as a personal tutor to international students completing Masters qualifications. My research is based within the HE field with a focus on academic identity development; embedding employability and academic skills (especially critical thinking skills); building engagement via assessment and transition to Higher Education.
