I've consulted on:

- Creative methods including photovoice, interactive poetry, collage, art exhibitions, and body mapping.
- Facilitating trauma-informed and survivor-led workshops.
- Training on methods, ethical research, qualitative and quantitative analysis, creative methodologies, research design, policy engagement, critical global health, postcolonial theory, conflict and violence, and access to medicines.
- Research ethics for charities and researchers to create their own processes.
- Writing support as co-editor of a Lancet series on Human Trafficking and Health, pioneering a participatory co-authorship model with lived experience contributors. Former founder and Editor-in-Chief of Stolen Tools, a health inequities journal.
- Evaluation co-creating indicators with services users and creating a shared story of a service.
- Power dynamics in teams and institutions using workshops on inclusion, reflexivity, and intersectionality.
“I resonated with your presentation quite deeply, because I, in my everyday work, I
try to embody research as resistance… Thank you so much, because I think this
is one of the first times in a very long time where I have seen myself in
academia reflected in my whole self… thank you for the hope as well, because
now I see that, oh, I do have a place that I can belong to.”

“Your seminars in particular have been amongst the few learning experiences I've had that have made me feel not only capable of doing research, but actually excited about the possibilities. I really appreciate the language you choose and the open, inclusive energy you offer. Just wanted to shout that out.”
