Doctoral Researcher, Sheffield Hallam University
I am a Sport Psychology PhD student and graduate teaching associate at Sheffield Hallam University within the Sport and Physical Activity Research Centre (SPARC). My current research interests include well-being, welfare, and morality within professional sports contexts, with a particular focus on male football.
My present research aims to utilise novel qualitative methods to illuminate how professional football coaches experience and make sense of well-being. These methods include interpretative phenomenological analysis, video docuseries, and photo-elicitation. My PhD has a specific focus on how socio-contextual and temporal interactions shape a person's well-being.
I also have an MSc in Sport and Exercise Psychology, where I explored morality within professional football contexts.
Before starting my full-time PhD scholarship, I was a Higher Education Teaching Associate who taught across many sports science and coaching degree programmes.
