I am a Doctoral Research Student in the Psychology Division, at the School of Applied Sciences. I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Cardiff University, before joining LSBU in 2019 as a postgraduate on the MSc in Mental Health and Clinical Psychology course. I started my PhD in April 2021. Alongside my studies, I am also an Hourly Paid Lecturer in the division, teaching on a range of undergraduate and postgraduate modules.
My research focuses on the continuing effects of dyslexia on cognition in adulthood. I am using a range of methodologies (self-report measures, controlled laboratory experiments, diary studies) to identify the impact dyslexia has on higher-order cognitive abilities (executive functions), such as planning and organisation, both of which play a vital role in the successful everyday functioning of adults. I am also particularly interested in the propensity of intention-related future thinking in individuals with dyslexia, the extent to which they successfully fulfil their planned intentions, and whether this is done with or without the use of external aids, such as calendars or reminders.
