Personal statement

I joined the department as lecturer in 2019. My research interests surround supply chain management with a focus on sustainability, competitiveness and innovation. I currently teach across a number of undergraduate and postgraduate classes, and contribute to the department's 'Business  innovation & networks' research stream. 

I have presented my research internationally and published in high ranking journals, including Supply Chain Management: an International Journal and Production Planning and Control.

I previously worked as a lecturer in Fashion Marketing at Glasgow Caledonian Univeristy, and have held both teaching and research roles at the University of Strathclyde. I obtained both my PhD and MSc in Supply Chain & Operations management from the University of Strathclyde.
