I am a sociologist and senior lecturer in Social Work. My research interests include autistic self-advocacy politics and identity constructions among adults with autism or ADHD. Other areas of interest are intersecting notions of age, space, gender and sexuality.
My research interests are on disability and development, disabilities in the Global South, inequality reduction, and human rights. I teach and research disabilities from a global perspective.
I am sociologist who works on disability and childhood, examining the social position of disabled children and their families, with a particular focus on the influence of a range of institutions and relationships in informing the lives disabled children lead.
