I am a postdoctoral research fellow working with Daniel Jolley (University of Nottingham) and Lee Curley (Glasgow Caledonian University) on a three-year Leverhulme funded project investigating whether a conspiracy mindset may bias juror decision-making. This project aims to uncover the direction of this bias, to detail why it is present, and explore when such a bias comes to the fore (or fades into the background).

Prior to my postdoc, I completed my PhD at Keele University which sought to refine our understanding of intergroup conflict. As part of this research, I paid particular attention to the impact of identity, collective victimhood, and conflict type on group members' decision to forgive.
