About
Biography
I am a Research Fellow on Doing Porridge: Understanding women’s experiences of food in prison and have recently completed a PhD entitled Performing Neoliberalism: Stories of care, conformity and resistance within contemporary prison theatre.
Prior to commencing my PhD I completed a MA in Applied Theatre and Criminal Justice at the Central School of Speech and Drama and have worked as a freelance arts facilitator in prisons, as well as holding roles delivering relationship based groupwork programmes for the prison advice and care trust.
My research interests include prison theatre, care and care aesthetics, neoliberalism, and gender and imprisonment. I utilise my background as an arts practitioner in both my methods and dissemination.
