Profile
Currently, I am a Research Services Team Assistant within the Library with a remit of research data management, researcher training support, and operational administration. Prior to this current post, I have held a range of roles within the GLAM sector with a particular focus on museums, documentation, and object management. I recently completed a collaborative doctorate hosted by the University of Leeds and the Royal Armouries into the role of museum registrars in providing safe and ethical access to weapons collections. As a postgraduate and postdoctoral researcher, I have routinely engaged with the work of Open Research Leeds and the Centre for Critical Studies in Museums, Galleries and Heritage.
