I am Senior Lecturer and Doctoral Degrees Coordinator at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. Since 2016, my research and knowledge exchange activity has been primarily aligned with the engagement work of Scottish Ballet, Scotland’s national dance company, focused on Dance for Health (DfH), working with dancers with dementia, Parkinson’s, and multiple sclerosis. I collaborate, publish, present, and review in the area of DfH. I am currently a Co-I on the AHRC project IMAGINED: Investigating Meaning-making and the cocreation of Guidelines for Evaluation IN participatory Arts for Dementia.
