Biography

Having worked for two decades as a campaigner and policy analyst in a number of national social justice NGO's including terms on NESF, NESC and various national policy forums. I returned to academic research in 2002 and graduated with PhD in Politics from the Department of Law and Government, Dublin City University in 2006.

In 2007 I joined the Department of Sociology in Maynooth University and worked to deliver the BA Politics undergraduate programme. I was appointed Professor in 2020 and Head of Department in 2021. My research interests include eco social policy, participation income, gender and social security, globalisation and welfare states, and power and civil society. I co-edited The Irish Welfare state in the 21st Century Challenges and Changes (Basingstoke, Palgrave, 2016) and Policy Analysis in Ireland (Policy Press, 2021) and four special issues. I have published widely in leading international journals including Community Development Journal, Policy and Politics, Policy and Society , Gender, Work and Organisation, Critical Social Policy, Social Policy and Administration, Social Policy and Society, and New Political Economy, as well as Irish journals including Administration, Irish Political Studies and Irish Journal of Sociology.

An elected member of Dublin City Council (2003-2008), I am an active advocate for social justice, eco social welfare and gender equality. Committed to engaged research I have worked with various civil society actors including NWCI, SIPTU, FORSA, INOU and Focus Ireland, as well as various government departments and statutory agencies. Previously a member of the National Expert Advisory Group and Tax and Social Welfare (2011-2014) and Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission (2013-2017), in 2019 I was appointed to the Council of State.
