Profile
Prior to joining the University of Sheffield as a Lecturer in Law, I taught Medical Law, Children's Rights and Public Law at the University of Liverpool as a Graduate Teaching Fellow.
My research interests include Child and Family Law, Healthcare Law and Ethics, and Gender, Sexuality and the Law. I am currently in the final stages of a PhD, which adopts a children's rights perspective on puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones for gender diverse youth.
