RESEARCH INTERESTS
Interest in Maternal Mental Health
My research is driven by a commitment to making health research and practice genuinely responsive to people’s lived experiences. I am particularly interested in maternal and reproductive health equity. During my PhD, I explored how parents bereaved by stillbirth sought support through baby loss peer groups. Using creative and reflective methods — including my own lived experience — I examined how grief is expressed, shared, and supported in community spaces.
I am keen to continue building on these areas of interest and to collaborate with others who share a commitment to amplifying lived experience, co-designing equitable approaches to health, and exploring how participatory methods can transform both research and practice.
