Personal profile

Personal Statement

I joined Strathclyde as a PhD student in 2016 and have worked across several projects in the University before taking up my current position of Teaching Associate and Course Leader on the BSc Hons Speech and Language Pathology. 

My research interests are in acquired disorders of eating, drinking, and swallowing, particularly those associated with dementia. I am also interested in conversational and discourse analysis methods in aphasia. My current research is focussing on the application of deep learning to this challenge in collaboration with colleagues in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering.

I lead and teach on several modules on the BSc and I am interested in developing eating, drinking, and swallowing competencies in pre-registration training. I also work collaboratively with colleagues to explore new approaches to placement and to evaluate students' perspectives on new models of clinical education.
