About Me

What do I do?

I am a research scientist/artist, meaning I specialise in helping people make sense of research using a very diverse range of methods – from more traditional text summaries and talks to creating stand-up, video, illustrations, songs, poetry and cartoon. 

I have expertise in:

  • art-based knowledge brokering
  • mathematics education resource design
  • educational brief writing for policymakers
  • portraiture
  • mathematical diagram design
  • editing of research articles
  • professional learning for teachers
  • school uniform and gender
  • creating video abstracts for research papers
  • research design and methods
  • LGBTQ+ identities in education
  • research songs
  • knowledge brokering in educational practice and policy
  • communicating research findings
  • mathematics teaching and learning
  • board gaming in education
  • creative research methods
  • infographic design
  • consulting on educational design projects or products
  • evidence-based teaching and learning

 

I have been interviewed on radio and television, and written and spoken for national news outlets, international conferences and UK institutions on the areas listed above. I also give training, professional learning and keynotes.  I have collaborated on a variety of exciting research projects in the UK and globally, and sit on various committees and governing bodies regarding education in England.

If you have an idea for a project about research, education or mathematics (or maybe all three!) then do get in touch via my contact page.
