Profile
I received my PhD in Psychology from the University of York. I then completed postdoctoral training at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine before joining the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health as a core faculty member of the Johns Hopkins Cochlear Center for Hearing and Public Health. I undertook a lectureship in the School of Health and Social Care at Edinburgh Napier University. I joined the University of Leeds as a lecturer in Psychology in 2026.
Research interests
My research interests include investigating the effects of hearing loss and hearing interventions on health and wellbeing, investigating inequities in hearing care, exploring alternative approaches to hearing care, and examining sensory needs and accommodations within clinical practice settings.
My research has had a demonstrable impact on policy. My work to investigate the prevalence of hearing loss was included in testimony to the US Congress, providing foundational evidence towards legislative changes in the United States (Over-The-Counter Hearing Aid Act 2017).
