Amanda Rose McVey

I am a Criminology PhD student at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, UK currently researching the living and lived experience of the immediate reentry phase and the factors that shape this transition. My research is grounded in qualitative mixed methods and focuses on understanding the complex social, emotional, and structural challenges faced by people transitioning from incarceration back into the community.

With a strong commitment to social and criminal justice my goal is to contribute to improved reentry processes, support services, and reintegration outcomes.

I welcome opportunities to collaborate with academics, practitioners, and organisations working on reentry, rehabilitation, and criminal justice reform.
