I initially joined King's part-time in February 2020, and became full-time in August 2021. I research gambling behaviour, and am the first behavioural addictions focussed Research Fellow within the National Addiction Centre. I have previously worked at the University of East London, and the University of Lincoln. I completed my PhD in Experimental Psychology at the University of Cambridge, my MSc in Cognitive Neuroscience at UCL, and my BSc in Psychology at UEL. I am a current recipient of the King’s Prize Fellowship, and a previous recipient of the Society for the Study of Addiction’s Griffith Edwards Academic Fellowship.
