Research

My research centers on workplace stress and its effects on worker well-being. I’m interested in uncovering strategies that ease the impact of stress, from redesigning the work environment to reshaping how we think about work after hours. A particular focus of mine is exploring how stress is influenced by work identification—how we come to see work as a part of who we are. Employing a blend of qualitative and quantitative research methods, my aim is to enhance our understanding of these important issues.

Below is a selection of my recent publications and other work. The rest can be found on my CV.
