I am a doctoral researcher in the Centre for Innovation in Mental Health at the University of Southampton. My project explores mindfulness and resilience for improved mental health and mental wellbeing in young adult populations. I have trained as a meditation teacher in 2010 and have practiced meditation since childhood. My research interests include mindfulness, maths/stats anxiety, learning, resilience, student wellbeing, behaviour change, mental health (with a specific focus on anxiety, depression, and stress), and mental wellbeing. I am passionate about teaching and sharing knowledge, in both academic and non-academic settings, with a focus on mindfulness, clinical psychology, and research methods/data analysis.
