I am a qualitative researcher, educator and consultant specialising in critical, feminist and decolonial approaches. I hold a PhD in Psychology from the University of Cape Town and completed a four-year postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Psychology, supported by competitive national and institutional research funding.​ Over the past fifteen years, I have taught, supervised and supported researchers across a wide range of academic and applied contexts. Through Big Q, I combine scholarly expertise with practical guidance to help postgraduate students, academics, universities and organisations navigate complex qualitative research challenges. When you work with Big Q, you work directly with me as Founder and Director.​ I am particularly passionate about building rigorous, contextually grounded research that contributes meaningfully to knowledge, practice and social justice.
