I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate and Senior Tutor in Educational Psychology, currently working on a project that aims to adapt the Parents and Children Together (PACT) early language teaching programme specifically for parents and young children with Down syndrome: PACT-DS.
Prior to my current roles, I completed a BSc Speech and Language Therapy degree at the University, then joined the Child Study Centre as a Psychology PhD researcher.
My research interests focus on how young children's socio-cognitive skills, language, and communication unfolds during both typical and atypical development- and how children's learning and development can be supported through intervention.
My PhD research investigated the development of young children’s (aged 2-5) verbal and non-verbal reasoning (via the use of gestures), joint decision-making, and cooperative argumentation.
I am part of the Education and Psychology research group at Manchester Institute of Education.
