Personal statement
I am Course Leader on the LLM/MSc/PGDip in Mediation and Conflict Resolution, which has been running at Strathclyde Law School since 2009. I am a practising mediator and Director of University of Strathclyde Mediation Clinic, providing small claims mediation at Glasgow Sheriff Court. My research interests include mediation in the justice system, the role of emotion in conflict and the wider use of mediatory approaches in society. I am currently a PhD candidate at Queen Margaret University where my subject is mediation and justice.
