Research
I am a social scientist with the Suicide and Mental Health Research Group at University of Otago, Wellington. My training is in public health with expertise in food policy and food politics. Recently I have been engaged in mental health research with a focus on suicide and suicide prevention.
As a social scientist with training in epidemiology and public health, I am have undertaken quantitative and qualitative health research in many areas including: tobacco and smoking, alcohol and drink driving, gambling, food and nutrition policy, food marketing, obesity, the politics of health promotion, mental health, suicide, and the framing of public health issues and debates.
My current research is focused on suicide. Recently I led a process evaluation of the Multi-level Intervention for Suicide Prevention in New Zealand, was PI on University of Otago funded research to study the media discourse on suicide news reporting in NZ, and was Co-PI (with Professor Sunny Collings) on the Suicide Mortality Review Feasibility Study (funded by the Health Quality of Safety Commission on behalf of the Ministry of Health).
