I received my PhD in Roman Archaeology from the University of Durham and I then undertook a British Academy Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at the University of Leicester. At Leicester I also undertook a number of other teaching and research roles including Research Associate on the Iron Age and Roman Coin Hoards in Britain project.

I teach a range of modules across archaeology and ancient history on Roman studies, Roman archaeology, Roman Britain and archaeology more widely.

I would be interested in supervising doctoral students on topics in Roman archaeology and Roman studies including the archaeology of the Roman West and Roman Britain, theory and historiography, identity, materiality, settlement studies, landscapes and water.

I am interested in the archaeology of the Roman World as well as the relationship with pre-existing worlds. My research has focused especially on settlement, landscapes and water as well as materiality, hoards and deposition. I am also interested in archaeological theory within Roman archaeology and the historiography of Roman studies. I have a number of publications on my research including Late Roman Towns in Britain: Rethinking Change and Decline (Cambridge University Press 2011), Water and Roman Urbanism: Towns, Waterscapes, Land Transformation and Experience in Roman Britain (Brill 2013), The Archaeology of Roman Britain: Biography and Identity (Routledge 2015), Iron Age and Roman Coin Hoards in Britain (co-authored, Oxbow Books 2020) and Roman Towns (Amberley 2023).
