In January 2022 I was awarded a Postgraduate Certificate in Academic Practice in Higher Education (PGCAP-HE) and I attained Fellowship of Advance HE (FHEA).
I joined the University of Manchester as a Lecturer in Public Law and Human Rights in September 2021. Before this, my first academic appointment was a Lectureship in Law at Coventry University between September 2020 and September 2021.
I began my Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) funded PhD in Law at Lancaster University in October 2017. I submitted my PhD in less than three years (August 2020) and this was awarded with minor corrections. During my PhD I worked as an Associate Lecturer teaching a range of modules, was a Research Assistant on several projects, attained Associate Fellowship of Advance HE, and was an Assistant Dean in Grizedale College.
This followed the LLM in International Human Rights Law which I studied at Lancaster University between October 2016 and October 2017. During my LLM I worked as a Research Assistant, an Administrative Assistant on the ‘Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and Sustaining Peace Project’, and I co-organised an expert level knowledge exchange symposium. I graduated top of the LLM cohort with a distinction, the dissertation prize, and an award for 'outstanding contributions to the postgraduate community of the Law School'.
Between 2013 and 2016 I studied for an undergraduate Law degree at Lancaster University. I graduated with a first-class honours degree and the prize for best undergraduate law dissertation.
My research centres on Human Rights. I am keenly interested in Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. I explore how these rights interact with poverty and destitution. I am also exploring the Right to Clothing.
I am the Course Director for Public Law and the Course Director for Constitutional Reform.
I have previous experience teaching Human Rights Law, International Law, English Legal System, Legal Methods, and Legal Academic Writing Skills.
