- Profile
-
I am a practicing journalist at a national newspaper, holding a master’s degree in digital journalism and a bachelor’s degree in broadcast journalism. I successfully completed the MailOnline graduate scheme and have experience in both broadcast freelancing and regional journalism.
I am pursuing a PhD, which incorporates a practical element, focusing on the impact of mainstream print newspapers on the Women’s Social and Political Union’s (WSPU) militant fight for suffrage.
- Research interests
-
My PhD involves researching newspapers which covered the notable militant members of the WSPU fighting for the right to vote from 1896 to 1914 and to what extent did their coverage influence the passing of the 1918 Representation of the People Act' and is supervised by Dr James Whitworth and Dr Emma Heywood.
