I am a senior lecturer in early modern History at the University of Chester. I previously worked at the University of Bristol, the University of the West of England and the University of Kent. Between 2013 and 2018 I was co-secretary of the Harlaxton Medieval Symposium. I am a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society and of the Higher Education Academy.

I would be happy to supervise MRes or PhD students on topics related to witchcraft (past and present), the religion and culture of unreformed and Catholic worship, and the colonial missions of the counter-reformation Church.
