- Profile
-
I am a Senior University Teacher and Professional Lead for Speech and Language Therapy in the School of Allied Health Professions, Nursing & Midwifery, University of Sheffield. My areas of teaching include acquired communication difficulties, clinical methods and intervention, and personal, professional and clinical development.
I qualified as a Speech and Language Therapist in 2004, completed a PhD in 2012 and gained a Senior Fellowship at the Higher Education Academy in 2016. Before joining the University of Sheffield in 2007, I worked as a clinician with adults with acquired neurological communication and swallowing disorders within the NHS.
I now work with colleagues and students to provide therapy input to adults with aphasia in the Aphasia Centre. I am a member of the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists and the Health Professions Council.
- Research interests
-
My current role is teaching focused but my previous research has focused on improving the lives of people with aphasia through developing interventions for word finding difficulties and developing accessible information for people with aphasia. My interests now lie in the scholarship of teaching and learning and technology enhanced learning.
