I have a BA Honours in English and MA in Twentieth Century Literature from the University of Leeds. I am currently in my final year of PhD research at the University of Huddersfield. I am researching ecological readings of Sylvia Plath's poetry. I am also a qualified English teacher; I spent 12 years working as Head of Literature at a prestigious sixth form college in Yorkshire. I currently work part time in a high school in London, whilst I complete my doctorate.
