About Me

Between 2005 and 2009, I headed the research and policy development function of an industry representative organisation, based in Dublin. Prior to joining the business sector, I worked in a number of academic research institutions in the UK and Ireland, where I wrote on the politics of urban regeneration and city governance. I hold a doctorate in Politics from the University of Manchester, a Masters degree in Social Research Methods also from Manchester, and a Masters in Political and Public Communications from DCU. I am a member of the Public Relations Institute of Ireland and the Irish Political Studies Association.
