Summary
I am currently an Education MA Programme Leader. Prior to joining the MA Education team at Brunel in 2021, I was a Senior Research Fellow and Lecturer at the UCL Institute of Education.
Over the last few years, I have worked on the teacher retention projects, both at UCL and Brunel, including as a Co-I on the ongoing (led by Durham University) on the recrutment and retention of minority ethnic teachers, and relationship to student outcomes (2022-2025).
I am a Co-I on the ongoing (led by UCL) investigating the effects of attainment grouping and mixed attainment teaching on student outcomes in secondary mathematics.
I had previously completed three postdoctoral projects on migrant students' identities and educational experiences at King's College London (with funding from the Newton International Fellowship and the British Academy Visiting Scholar Scheme) and at the University of Porto (with funding from the Portuguese Foundation of Science and Technology).
Prior to starting my PhD at the University of Cambridge, I worked at the Open Society Soros Foundation in Ukraine on the national reform to ensure equal and transparent access to higher education.
