I'm currently employed as a Research Fellow within the Centre for Social Care, Health & Related Research at Birmingham City University (UK). My research focuses upon menstrual health and includes projects specifically looking at period poverty, menstruation and chronic illness, inclusivity within 'femtech' (period tracking apps) and best practice within menstrual health education.

My PhD looks at how women living with chronic health conditions manage menstruation, in the context of their health condition.
