- Research Associate in the Centre for Behavioural Science and Applied Psychology (CeBSAP), Sheffield Hallam University
I am a behavioural science researcher in the Centre for Behavioural Science and Applied Psychology at Sheffield Hallam University. I am a cyberpsychologist and my research adopts a mixed methods approach. My main interests are in adolescent development, wellbeing, and mental health in the digital age, with a particular interest in body image and social media. I am also interested in developing, delivering and evaluating educational programmes and digital interventions to tackle these topics.
