Biography
I completed my undergraduate degree here at the University of Surrey and then went onto to do my Masters at the University of Sussex. I have some experience as a Research Assistant and as a demonstrator in undergraduate statistics classes.
Research Interests
I am primarily interested in the history of Psychology, specifically the Rorschach Inkblot test and it's use in the UK throughout the 20th Century. The Rorschach Inkblots have been used in a number of ways and I am interested in how they perform under different socio-historical contexts. I am also interested in LGBT Psychology and Queer/feminist approaches to investigating history.
