The Research Witch
Sociology, Education, Gender Studies
About
I am a UK-based Professor of Sociology of Education, Work and Social Justice. As a child, I dreamed of being a witch. These days, I am mostly interested in researching identities and inequalities in education and at work.

I am passionate about writing. In this section, you will find some information about my current writing projects and my recent publications.
Dissemination and impact activities
This is the place where I share some of the material I use for impact and dissemination activities. A current concern relates to how research can generate a more ‘care-full university’ and society, where care work in its multiple forms is acknowledged and valued.
“Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.”
