About me

Currently, I am a Research Assistant within the Department of Psychology at Durham University. I completed my PhD in 2023 within the School of Psychology at Keele University, supervised by Professor Jim Grange and Dr Sara Spotorno.

Prior to my current role, I held positions as a Statistician, Lecturer, and Teaching Fellow. My research interests include visual short-term memory, cognitive control, and auditory distraction. I also have interests in mathematical and computational modelling, Open Research, and programming (primarily R and Python).
