Professor in Public Health, University of Otago

Profile Articles Activity

My first three degrees were in English Literature; I completed a Masterate exploring the use of irony in Beowulf, a very early Old English poem. I next worked in marketing, as a survey researcher, and undertook a PhD in survey research. I taught marketing for several years but became increasingly interested in public health and, when the opportunity to move disciplines arose, I relocated to the Department of Public Health. I co-direct a UOO research centre (ASPIRE 2025) and undertake work to support the Government's smokefree 2025 goal.
