I have been supporting academic researchers for over fifteen years, initially at Oxford Brookes University, then at the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, and now in DPIR since December 2025. I originally studied music at the University of Liverpool and at Durham University before later gaining an MSc and professional qualification in librarianship.

My responsibilities include:

  • Pre-award support (opportunity scanning, eligibility requirements, proposal development, pricing and costing)
  • Post-award support (purchasing and receipting, expenses, ethics committee applications, reporting, award amendments)
  • OxPo Network
  • REF 2029

For general enquiries please contact me using our team email address: research@politics.ox.ac.uk.

I typically work Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm and work in the office from Tuesday to Thursday and remotely on Monday and Friday.
