About
I study career success, the work–nonwork interface (including hybrid and remote work), and understudied careers using in-depth qualitative methodologies. I serve as an Associate Editor of Human Relations and sit on the editorial boards of other journals. Since joining the University of Southampton in 2017, I have held a number of leadership roles, including Co-Director of the Work Futures Research Centre, Director of the Centre for Research on Work and Organisations, Research Integrity Champion for the Faculty of Social Sciences, a member of the core group developing the Business School's revised strategy (2019–2021), and a member of the advisory board of Future Ways of Working (a university-wide strategic major project).
My research helps individuals make informed career decisions and enables organisations to better support their employees' work and personal lives. I share my research with the world of work and provide consultancy when I can make a difference.
I adopt hands-on and experiential approaches in my teaching and prioritise creating an inclusive learning environment that enables students to think critically and flourish. I am lucky to work with PhD students who contribute to career research and practice.
