Senior Lecturer Public Management, and Course Leader Masters in Public Administration, University of Portsmouth
I lecture in Politics and Public Administration at Masters level at the University of Portsmouth. I have 20 years experience in local and national government, with a special interest in communities and partnership working.

I lead four modues for the Masters in Public Administration (DL/DA) and the Senior Leader Masters in Public Administration Degree Apprenticeship. I also lead the Professional Practice undergraduate module.

My background is in Local and National Government as a manager having had fifteen years in public service, during which time I taught at other universities in Sussex. My research covers aspects of community safety and policing, with a special focus on knife crime and youth violence. I have published in this area and my paper "The London Killings of 2018: the story behind the numbers and some proposed solutions" has recently appeared in Crime Prevention and Community Safety. In 2020, my book, "Solutions to Knife Crime: a path through the red sea?" was published by Vernon Press.

I have recent had two conference papers published on detecting radicalisation in communities and on multi-agency partnership working. I have a journal article out for review on the London stabbings of 2018.
