Research Fellow in the Sport Industry Research Centre, Sheffield Hallam University

I am a Research Fellow in the Sport Industry Research Centre at Sheffield Hallam University. I have a background in sociology with a focus on the sociology of sport and leisure, and my particular areas of research interest include understanding participation in sport, including barriers to participation and participation in minority groups, particularly women and girls; the outcomes of sport, including the physical and the social outcomes, such as the development of identity and community through sport; and the health and fitness industry, including new trends in fitness practices.
