I am a final year PhD student in the University of Galway. I graduated with a BSc in Occupational Therapy from the University of Galway in 2018. I have since worked in role-emerging areas of occupational therapy including Memory Technology Resource Rooms where I prescribed assistive technology for people experiencing memory difficulties. My area of research is focused on digital technology to support the social health of people living with dementia. I have a keen interest in participatory research and methods of data collection with a specific emphasis on public and patient involvement (PPI).
