Teaching
I teach veterinary epidemiology, the human-animal bond, and companion animal welfare to the undergraduates in the veterinary school and life sciences. I am also module lead for the Masters module in Animals and human society where I teach qualitative research methods. I also teach companion animal behaviour and the human-animal bond to undergraduate animal behaviour students at Liverpool John Moores University. I supervise numerous veterinary and bioveterinary science undergraduate research projects around human-animal interaction and animal behaviour.
I completed the Certificate in Professional Studies in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education in 2019 with Merit, and I am a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
