I am a speech & language therapist by background with extensive clinical experience in dysphagia and clients with disabilities, particularly physical and intellectual disabilities. I am currently lecturing in UL and am also the Course Director of the MSc Speech & Language Therapy course. I have published a number of books including ‘The Manual of Paediatric Feeding Practice’ and ‘The Fun with Food programme: Therapeutic intervention for children with an aversion to oral feeding’.
I have two main research interests.
