About

As a true multi-method researcher I am equally comfortable using qualitative, quantitative and deliberative methods. I am a certified member of the MRS and have been a research practitioner for more than 25 years.

Prior to founding Collaborate Research in 2012, I worked at a senior level for a number of leading research agencies.  During my career I have engaged with a wide range of clients, sectors, issues and research audiences, so I am able to turn my hand to pretty much any research assignment.

Currently, my research primarily supports government, regulators and charities to develop policy, services and campaigns.  I work across a range of sectors with a particular emphasis on financial services, energy, health and social care, work and welfare.

I have specialist skills in the following areas:

• Mixed methods research
• Engaging hard to reach and vulnerable audiences
• Applying behavioural sciences to research
• Writing research reports for publication
