Research Interests

In 2018 she was awarded her PhD in Technology and Innovation Management from SPRU. Her thesis was a study of Heathrow (Terminal 2 and Terminal 5) as sites for risk-control innovation. The thesis "The Intelligent Client: Learning To Govern听Through听Numbers at Heathrow" considered:

  • The history of the broken business model in UK construction
  • Governing risk, foresight and the shaping of what counts as valuable in projects
  • The听evolution of calculable spaces at Heathrow
  • Justified discovery through calculative infrastructures听

By 2019 she became an Co-investigator on the ESRC funded Project X. In this role she examined performance management and control in the delivery of major infrastructure programmes drawing on an intensive 25 year case study of management control architectures at Heathrow. The initial stage considered the temporal and institutional dynamics of听 鈥渞iskwork鈥. These findings were extended to consider other forms of calculative practice underpinning risk-control innovation during the delivery of large-scale projects.听听

In 2022 she left Sussex but continues to collaborate with academic colleagues on several projects as an Associate Research Fellow.听
