Teaching

For over 20 years I have consulted with the Home Office and Health and Safety Executive regarding the legal regulation of firearms and explosives. I have also researched the evolution of judicial independence and the rule of law in England, as well as the contemporary development of the Chinese judiciary. I'm currently researching student analytics to promote a student-centric approach to the study of law.
