Biography
Biography I have been part of the DProf (Transdisciplinary
Practice) team at Middlesex University since September 2020 having previously
spent 22 years in the Accounting and Finance department at Middlesex
University. I requested to join this team because its approach and philosophy
resonated with my own practice development, it opened doors to interconnecting
sectors and disciplines rather than working in silos and prescribed methods.
I enjoy research particularly when I approach it
with an open mind to what may emerge rather than what I expect to come out of
it. I also like to focus on the important but less noticed issues. My research
background reflects this. My formative discipline and academic practice area is
Accounting and Finance and Communications Policy. My PhD, over 20 years ago
now, on 'Gender, Ethnicity and
Professional Membership: The Case of the UK Accounting Profession' was an
under researched area at the time. While I am fascinated by the theory of
Accounting, my passion is in the threads that link accounting to social issues
and to make those threads stronger in the eyes of the academy the public and
policy makers. I am now more involved with creating stronger links between
multi sector professionals and the academy and what we can achieve together.
Teaching My teaching involves the supervision of DProf and Public Works doctoral candidates. Current supervisions include the area of:
