I am a graduate of the BEd Music (Hons) programme at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (formerly Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama) and the University of Glasgow (PhD, 2011). I have enjoyed an extensive, sustained career in creative arts education and teacher education. Since 2006, I have taught across undergraduate and postgraduate education programmes at the University of Glasgow, the University of Edinburgh and more recently at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (RCS). Before working in Higher Education, I taught Music in Secondary schools across Glasgow.
From 2017, I was a Lecturer in Professional Learning and, for a time, programme coordinator for PGDE (Music) at RCS. My role at RCS was largely across the initial teacher education (ITE) programmes where I was responsible for leading and coordinating teacher education/professional studies and supporting the Conservatoire to extend its educational reach, working with professional bodies and local authorities across the country.
Research interests
Beyond my teaching and leadership responsibilities, I have published in peer-reviewed education journals and presented at national and international conferences. My research interests lie primarily within arts education, particularly in the areas of high-ability studies, professional learning and enquiry for teachers, early career development and learning with technology.
I have a range of external professional commitments including membership in national working groups and from 2021-23 was President of the Scottish Educational Research Association (SERA). I also have experience in external examining of ITE programmes in addition to examining PhD and EdD theses on topics such as creativity, music education and student experience in Higher Education.
