Personal profile

Area of academic expertise - outline

I qualified as a registered nurse in 1998 with a Bachelor of Nursing degree. The majority of my clinical experience has been in critical care initially as a junior, then senior staff nurse, and laterally as a practice educator. I joined the University of the West of Scotland in 2009 as a Lecturer in Adult Nursing and I currently teach on all three years of the BSc Adult Nursing Programme.

I am also seconded to facilitate the My Home Life Scotland programme and am involved research activities in order to develop and evaluate the impact of this programme.

I have experience with different research approaches including mixed methods (MSc dissertation).  My recent research experience and interests have been with participatory approaches and particularly Appreciative Inquiry.
