Biography

I have extensive experience in Psychology and Organisational Behaviour (OB), and Management Information Systems (MIS) both in Ireland and the UK. Past work experiences include roles such as Organisational Psychologist, and working within Clinical Quality Management.  I have qualifications in Psychology, OB, and MIS, as well as qualifications in Psychiatry, having previously worked in this area within the NHS, UK. I have lectured on a variety of courses both in Management (Organisational Behaviour - OB, and Enquiry Based Research - ERB) and Health Sciences (Health Management, Mental Health and Counselling). More recently I lecture on Health Information Systems (HIS) within University College Cork and my research focuses on areas related to HIS, Management, OB and Sustainability. I have several publications and conference proceedings in the areas of Health, Management, and Sustainability.
