Personal Profile:
Originally working in the social media and academic area, I have chosen to work in the practical field for 4 years of content and copy writing, before commencing doctoral training scheme at University of Bradford, funded by Health eResearch Centre (HeRC) in Manchester, UK. As part of my PhD, I examined issues of consent and privacy, and its impact on health and fitness app users using qualitative methods.
This has given me the practical as well as academic experiences within the social and technical implementation of technological areas, dealing with modern IT systems. Experienced in both quantitative and qualitative research, I am particularly interested in mixed methods research, using ethnographic methods in collaboration with surveys.
