About

I am a social scientist with an MA in Socio-Cultural Anthropology and a BA in Anthropology and Philosophy. I am skilled in qualitative research (including interviewing and coding), cultural and critical analysis, fieldwork and problem-solving, with experience applying these across diverse contexts.\n\nMy philosophy background strengthens my research with critical reasoning, logical clarity and ability to interpret complex social issues through multiple perspectives. I am adaptable, collaborative and motivated to apply academic and analytical skills to professional environments with strong research ethics and informed-consent practice. I am a clear communicator, both oral and written, with strong capability to synthesise complex ideas and present them clearly to different audiences. Key research interests include religion and secularism in contemporary Ireland; youth culture, morality and identity formation; technology, privacy and digital ethics; policy, governance and cultural change; and qualitative and phenomenological research methods.
