Presentation

I qualified as a social worker in 2004 in Cork, Ireland, and have since worked across several countries, including New Zealand, Pakistan, and Sweden. In 2015, I completed my Doctor of Social Work at the University of Sussex, UK.

From 2015 to 2019, I was based at the University of Gothenburg before joining Malmö University, where I have worked since 2019.

I currently serve on the executive committee of the European Association of Schools of Social Work (EASSW), a network promoting collaboration and quality in social work education across Europe. I also host the EASSW podcast series, which features discussions on current themes in social work education, research, and practice.

My current research focuses on social work education, crisis and disaster preparedness in schools, school-based social work, and decolonial and critical pedagogies. I have published on topics such as school-based interventions, transformative learning, AI in social work, and decolonising curricula. My most recent book, Decolonising Social Work Education: Memory, Haunting and Critical Hope in the Nordics, will be published by Routledge in November 2025.
