Biography
I am Head of School of Applied Social Studies. As a social science and social work researcher, I collaborate across disciplines on projects relating to ageing and wellbeing throughout the life course. My current work focuses on technology and on the arts for improving wellbeing. Along with colleagues from computer science, we are seeking to establish ways of identifying loneliness through passive sensing with the aim of identifying new opportunities for intervention. This thematic work includes a participatory project (IRC 2023/24), SMILE, in collaboration with ALONE. Representing methodological diversity, a project (IRC 2022), AgeACTED, challenged ageism through participatory ethnodrama. I am also a partner on AliVe, funded under Erasmus+ (2023/2026), which uses participatory methodologies to identify and address barriers to age-inclusive lifelong learning. I have an interest in participatory research and sit on the management committee of Action CA22167 - COST Participatory Approaches with Older Adults (2023/2027). I contribute to research for policy initiatives, most recently from 2020-2024 at the What Works Centre for Wellbeing, London.
I supervise doctoral research at the School and the Science Foundation Ireland Centre for Research Training in Advanced Networks for Sustainable Societies. In August 2023, I was appointed Professor of Social Work at UCC and was appointed Head of School in May 2024.
I was awarded a DPhil and a MPhil from the University of Oxford and a BSocSc and MSW from UCC. I am a registered social worker (CORU SW005720) and have worked in social work in the health services.
