My aim is simple: to turn complex evidence into meaningful insight that can inform understanding, policy and practice.

Independent researcher.

Evidence. Insight. impact.

I am an independent researcher with an MSc in Psychology and extensive professional experience across NHS and public-sector settings.

My work explores the complex issues affecting children, young people and families, with particular interests in SEND and inclusion, education and attendance, safeguarding and vulnerability, mental health, adoption, trauma and resilience.

I combine psychological research, evidence synthesis and practical experience to investigate important questions, critically examine the available evidence and communicate findings clearly and accessibly.
