RESEARCH & SCHOLARSHIP SUMMARy

My current area of scholarship and research is in the area of legal education and pedagogy. Recent projects include the rise of education/teaching focused contracts in Legal Education, co-creation, following the 2021 Law School 'Making a difference' Employability showcase, embedding professional skills in the curriculum and the participatory design approach to the development of the new Business Law and Practice module, introduced in 2023.

I am also interested in research relating to my teaching, most recently in relation to Contract Law, where I have recently published an article in the Journal of Business Law on the intention to create legal relations doctrine.
