I am a historian of Psychology with a particular interest in feminist and queer
histories. Originally trained as a social Psychologist, I adopt a particular critical,
queer feminist perspective in analysis of objects of psychological interest. I am
engaged with questions surrounding the influences on and from Psychology, as well
as those surrounding ‘truth’ within the philosophy of science. I have additional
interests in sexuality, gender, essentialist beliefs and graphic novels.
