My current research interests focus on the dynamics of age and ageism in the workplace; work values; employment 'post-retirement', workplace learning and development, and cross-national HRM/D trends and issues.

Over the course of my career, I have taught a wide array of subjects across a multitude of programmes and to a diverse range of undergraduate, post-graduate and post experience professional learners. Currently my teaching interests center around aspects of effective and sustainable Human Resource Management, Organisational Behaviour and Learning and DevelopmentTeaching represents a core component of my academic role as an academic - it is the aspect of the role that I commit considerable energies to, and which I enjoy enormously. I believe in the importance of creating a rich, interactive and valuable learning environment for our students and I strive to deliver that in every module that I teach. I was shortlisted for the UL Excellence in Teaching Award in 2015, identified nationally as a Teaching Hero in 2021, and won the Regional Teaching Excellence Award in 2021.
