Yesterday I graduated with my PhD in social psychology🎉 I’m deeply grateful to my partner, family, friends, examiners, peers, and especially my three incredible supervisors whose mentorship shaped my work. Next stop: Europe—open to postdocs in France & beyond!
Excited to share that I’ve started as a Postdoctoral Researcher at l'Université de Poitiers! I’ll be studying how social media platforms handle corporate social responsibility around children’s engagement, safety, & empowerment. Looking forward to the challenge of new research, culture, & language!
These past two days of the Crowds & Leadership small group meeting in (surprisingly) sunny Exeter flew by! I am so grateful to the wonderful organisers for bringing together so many insightful, timely, and diverse perspectives in the field of social psychology and beyond.
My 2nd PhD paper is out now in Sex Roles! 🎉 We examine how cis women perceive the boundaries of womanhood & how this shapes allyship intentions for trans women’s inclusion. Read open access now: doi.org/10.1007/s11199-025-01610-5
I'm presenting my completed PhD in two sessions at EASP: the Reactionary Movements pre-conference on the 30th & the blitz session on Feminism, Polarization and Gender on the 4th. My first EASP & first conference as a new post-doc in France. Keen to connect with more social psychs based in France!
My chapter with @hemapreya.bsky.social and Dr. Olivia Evans appears as Chapter 5📖 Excited to read the contributions of others on Crowds, Leadership, and Social Movements from around the world!
I am so excited to announce the publication of my first PhD paper, written in collaboration with Laurent Licata and amazing participants!
