My research interests fall within the fields of forensic phonetics and sociophonetics. My PhD project is focussed on a number of speech rhythm parameters (along with disfluency phenomena) and the implications and applications these could have for forensics and criminal justice investigations.

• Forensic phonetics
• Sociophonetics
• Speech disfluencies
• Speech rhythm
• Accents and dialects of the UK (in particular the North-West of England)
