I am the Faculty of Arts & Humanities Academic Lead for Admissions & Recruitment, responsible for managing faculty admissions strategy and processes for Foundation, Undergraduate & Postgraduate provision.

My background and expertise is in Filmmaking, Photography and Higher Education Admissions.

My research interests include Documentation Art and Artist Documentary Film. Recent research has developed film work through collaborative partnerships relating to clay both as ceramics and in a wider artistic application.
