BIOGRAPHY


I completed my BSc Psychology at the University of Hull in 2006, and worked in retail for a while before completing my MSc in Research Methods in Psychology at the University of Essex in 2010.


RESEARCH OVERVIEW


My interests lie in reading research in general, but specifically in dyslexia. My PhD research is focused on solving some methodological issues in identifying subtypes of dyslexia.
