Research interests: Her work interrogates how power asymmetries within advanced capitalist societies shape spatial planning outcomes. Three inter-locking strands dominate: (1) power & politics inside planning systems; (2) neoliberalisation of planning legislation and state institutions; and (3) stakeholder perceptions of planning legitimacy. Current EPA-funded project REM2ARC investigates behavioural barriers to septic-tank remediation across rural Ireland.
Publications trajectory: Across 2024-25 she has led papers on pandemic rural mobilities, financialisation of planning law, and household behaviour regarding on-site wastewater systems, signalling a shift toward environmental risk governance while retaining her core critical-planning lens.
