Background
Having graduated from the University of Edinburgh with a BSc (Soc.Sci-Nursing) in 1992 and as RMN I went on to work in the Third Sector for Body Positive, and service-user led organisation supporting people and families affected by HIV and AIDS. I went on to work in the Greater Manchester area in mental health rehabilitation and then as a community mental health nurse before returning to Scotland where I rejoined the university as a part-time teacher, undertaking my MSc (Research) part time and then gaining the Gardner Scholarship to complete my PhD studies as a full-time student all at the University of Edinburgh. Following completion of my PhD I gained a full-time lecturing post at Abertay University, Dundee where I led the mental health nursing programme before returning to a lecturer post here in Nursing Studies in 2013.
My teaching portfolio is focused on mental health and on professional issues. I have a strong interest in learning and teaching and have developed a number of coures drawing on creative practices (see http://www.teaching-matters-blog.ed.ac.uk/being-creative-with-student-assessment/) and using study circles as an integral part of learning and assessment (http://www.teaching-matters-blog.ed.ac.uk/placing-study-circles-at-the-centre-of-the-student-learning-experience/). I currently hold the role of School Equality and Diversity Coordinator and work closely with the Director of Learning and Teaching with a focus on inclusion within the curriculum.
My research expertise is qualitative with a particular focus on narrative, discourse and power. I am also interested in the use of creative methods in research, particularly poetry and digital stories both as data and audience engagement media. My current research is focused on workforce, prison populations and alcohol, mental health carers in rural Scotland, and an autoethnographic interrogation of power in the co-productive relationship. As Associate Director of the Centre for Creative Relational Inquiry I am responsible for the programme of events to support doctoral students.
