About me

I have been working in the environmental field for over two decades with a primary focus on atmospheric emissions and their management including odour, ammonia, bioaerosols, traditional air quality pollutants (e.g. particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide, ozone) and greenhouse gases.

I have worked with local, national and international government on a range of air quality and carbon management projects including Defra and the Devolved Administrations, the South African government, Irish Environmental Protection Agency, the European Environment Agency and the European Commission.

Area of expertise

I am a member of the Centre for Environment, Society and Resilience, facilitating the cross-collaboration needed in environmental research and knowledge exchange to address the current and future challenges that threaten our natural and urban environments. Example of research projects include:

  • Co-Chair of the Bristol Advisory Committee on Climate Change, an independent technical committee supporting Bristol in its ambition to be a carbon neutral and a climate resilient city.
  • Member of the Welsh Government Clean Air Advisory Panel, and independent expert advisory group on air quality matters in Wales.
  • UWE project lead and case study coordinator for the Horizon 2020 funded WeCount Project which utilised citizen science to understand transport challenges across five European cities. 
  • UWE project lead and Technical Director of the Horizon 2020 funded ClairCity Project which implemented an innovative citizen-centred approach to understanding air pollution and carbon emissions in six European cities and regions.
  • Working with University College Dublin and the Irish Environmental Protection Agency on ammonia emissions from agriculture and the impact on sensitive habitats (AmmoniaN2K Project and AirN2K Project).
  • A number of NERC funded projects investigating the generation, dispersion and management of bioaerosols​ from intensive agriculture and biowaste facilities.
