I am a Senior Lecturer in Ethics at Roehampton Business School, having previously held a position at Kingston University. In the US, I was a researcher at the Harvard Business School focusing on gender equality issues at work and at home. I was also a part-time Lecturer at Babson College and a Visiting Scholar at the Center for Gender in Organizations (Simmons College) and Women’s Studies Research Center (Brandeis University). In Germany, I worked as a researcher at the University of Stuttgart, conducting an evaluation of mentoring programs for women in Germany, a project funded by the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). I received my Ph.D. degree from University College London.

My research is concerned with intersectional inequality in organizations. I am particularly interested in examining how organizational practices, household dynamics, and identity influence people’s work and personal lives. 

Research interests:

- Flexible working

- The future of work

- Gender, race and class in organizations

- Intersectionality and career outcomes

- Career transitions

- Social reproduction

- Maternal employment and career outcomes

- Dual-career couples

- Equality, diversity and inclusion in professional service firms

- Equality, diversity and inclusion in the Global South (e.g. Mexico)

My research has been published in international peer-reviewed journals, including Work, Employment and Society, Organization Studies, Journal of Vocational Behavior and Gender, Work and Organization.

I have been the recipient of grants from UKRI (Strategic Priorities Fund); the Southlands Methodist Trust, the Mexican National Council of Science and Technology (CONACyT), the British Council, and the Santander Mobility Grant Program.

I am a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and the Research Ethics Officer of Roehampton Business School.

I currently supervise three internal PhD students and one external PhD student (Hasselt University). I welcome inquiries from potential PhD students interested in the research areas outlined above.

I work closely together with practitioners. I have advised corporations in Mexico on the implementation and evaluation of gender equality and work/life balance initiatives. I am currently collaborating with practitioners and activists in the UK to explore the experiences of ethnic minority professional women.

I am committed to forming ethical business leaders through my teaching. I have taught Business Ethics, International Human Resource Management, Leadership and Change, Organizational Behavior, and Qualitative Research Methods at the undergraduate and graduate levels. I have fully re-designed modules leading to improved student learning and satisfaction. I have also supervised numerous undergraduate and postgraduate dissertations.
