Research & Consulting
I support universities, health organisations, charities, and policy-focused teams to design and deliver research that reflects the real complexity of women’s oral health.
This includes areas where clinical evidence alone is not enough, and where lived experience, social context, and system design need to be considered together.
I work from early concept development through to study delivery, ensuring research is both methodologically robust and grounded in real-world relevance.
-
shaping research questions and study design
selecting appropriate qualitative and mixed methods approaches
advising on methodology and research strategy
supporting grant and funding applications
contributing to interpretation of findings
helping translate research into publishable, policy-relevant outputs
-
in-depth qualitative interviews and narrative approaches
participatory and arts-based research methods
mixed-methods integration and interpretation
This is particularly valuable in areas such as stigma, access to care, hormonal oral health, and inclusion health, where complexity is central, not peripheral.
Educational & Professional Services
I design and deliver education that helps clinicians, educators, and organisations understand women’s oral health in a more connected and applied way.
Rather than focusing solely on clinical facts, my teaching explores how oral health is shaped by wider biological, social, and structural factors, and what that means in practice.
The aim is not just knowledge transfer, but perspective shift.
-
oral health and hormonal changes across the life course
stigma, communication, and help-seeking behaviour
inclusion oral health and marginalised patient experiences
complexity in clinical presentation and decision-making
the interaction between oral health and wider women’s health
-
more confident clinical reasoning in complex cases
improved communication with patients
stronger understanding of non-clinical drivers of oral health
more integrated, context-aware care
This work is designed to bridge the gap between clinical training and real-world patient experience.
Speaking & Thought Leadership
I speak at conferences, panels, and interdisciplinary events across healthcare, academia, and women’s health.
My focus is on bringing clarity to complex issues in women’s oral health, and connecting research, clinical practice, and lived experience in a way that is accessible, relevant, and thought-provoking.
-
what is currently missing in women’s oral health research
how lived experience should shape evidence and design
stigma as a clinical and systemic issue
where oral health sits within wider women’s health frameworks
translating complexity into action
My speaking style is evidence-led, clear, and grounded in real-world relevance, designed to challenge thinking and support meaningful discussion beyond the session itself.
-
a strong, credible, research-informed voice
clarity on complex or under-discussed topics
interdisciplinary perspective across systems and practice
content that drives discussion and engagement
Frequently Asked Questions
-
No. While my background is in dentistry, my work sits at the intersection of oral health, women’s health, and healthcare systems more broadly.
Many of the themes I explore, including access, stigma, communication, and hormonal health, are relevant across multiple areas of healthcare. I regularly work with interdisciplinary teams and organisations looking to better understand how oral health connects with wider health outcomes.
-
I work with universities, research teams, health organisations, charities, policy groups, and educational providers.
I am particularly interested in collaborations where there is a genuine commitment to exploring complexity and improving how services, research, or education are developed and applied.
-
Yes. I often work with individuals and organisations at an early stage, helping to shape ideas into clear research questions, develop appropriate methodologies, and think through how a project can have meaningful impact.
This is especially valuable in areas that are underexplored or where there is no obvious existing framework to follow.
-
Both. I can provide focused advisory input on specific aspects of a project, or be involved more substantially in research design, delivery, interpretation, and publication.
The level of involvement can be tailored depending on what is needed.
-
My work is grounded in qualitative and mixed-methods approaches that prioritise depth, nuance, and lived experience.
I focus particularly on understanding how people experience healthcare in context — especially in areas where traditional research methods may not fully capture complexity. This is combined with clinical insight and an understanding of how healthcare systems operate in practice.
-
Yes. All teaching and training is tailored to the audience, setting, and goals.
This may involve focusing on specific topics such as hormonal health, stigma, communication, or access to care, or developing sessions that respond to particular challenges within your organisation.
