Biography

I’m an educator teaching across Hospitality, Tourism, Marketing and Management courses. I have extensive industry experience in hospitality and tourism from several countries including Kenya, Botswana, South Africa, the United States, and Australia.

My research is interdisciplinary. I apply qualitative methodologies to explore emotions, personal and professional development and education pedagogy and their related impacts on organisations and society. My work has been published in high ranking journals such as International Journal of Contemporary Hospitality Management, Tourism Analysis, and Higher Education Research and Development. I have presented my work in both national and international conferences and featured in reputable publications such as The Conversation.

I contribute to the peer review process for many highly ranked journals and currently serve on the editorial team of Higher Education Research and Development (HERD) journal and the Educational Action Research Journal.
