She was proud to launch TL;DR--the less textual legal gallery in late 2019--which showcases ways of making law more accessible to all. She has worked with charities, law firms and independent organisations too; helping them find better solutions for communicating the law to their clients.

In 2013 the Higher Education Academy named her one of 55 National Teaching Fellows--the UK's most prestigious awards for excellence in higher education teaching and support for learning. She is also a Senior Fellow of the HEA. Her interests lie in legal education, legal research and legal information literacy, student engagement, legal design and visualisation and the use of technology in teaching and learning.
