I am an Associate Professor in the School of Social and Political Sciences at the University of Lincoln where I teach Key Social Science Concepts, Human Rights, Social Issues and Social Justice, Images of Crime and Applying Research. My research explores the contributions of private enterprise and civil society towards crime prevention, social order, public health, and the environment.

I have a PhD from King's College London and an M.Phil. in Political Theory from the University of Oxford. I was a Fellow at the NYU School of Law from 2016 to 2019. I have published research, among other places, in the American Journal of Political Science, The British Journal of Criminology, and Polity. 

My work benefits from interdisciplinary collaboration, especially within the framework of Philosophy, Politics and Economics. My co-authors include Nancy Cartwright, Carlo Cordasco, Charles Delmotte, Aris Trantidis, Siddhartha Bandyopadhyay and Rachela Colosi.
