I have a keen interest in all aspects of education. I am interested in the creative nature of education and in particular, drama as a teaching method, as well as applied drama and theatre.

Teaching
I have taught in a range of formal and informal education settings. I began my career performing and teaching abroad before running drama workshops in a variety of settings within the North West of Lancashire. For a number of years I taught in a SpLD school before moving on to become a teacher of Drama and English within secondary education. Prior to becoming the programme leader for Education Studies, at the University of Chester, I lead the Education Studies degree programme at the University Centre at Blackburn College.
Research
I am currently working with a production company to create a short film which will explore the seaside town of Blackpool and its entertainment culture. I will be focusing on drag performance in Blackpool both historically and in the present day whilst exploring the town's working class heritage.
