I was awarded a PhD by Prior Publication from Cardiff University in 2021, completing my PhD and juggling research with a full-time job in the Civil Service. I am currently a Research Associate at the University of York, working on the SIGN project and exploring skills and training in the screen industries.
I have published extensively in the fields of media and cultural studies, with a focus on media audiences and fandom, participatory culture, digital dislike, media tourism, cult TV and nostalgia.
I’m a peer reviewer for a number of journals including:
- New Media and Society
- Porn Studies Journal
- International Journal of Cultural Studies
- Participations
- Intensities
- Transformative Works and Cultures
- Cinema Journal
- Journal of Fandom Studies
I’m a founding board member of the Fan Studies Network, co-chair for the SCMS Fan and Audience Studies SIG, and on the editorial board of the Journal of Fandom Studies, Transformative Works and Cultures and Pop Junctions. I am also co-Editor-in-Chief of Popular Communication.

Hello Bethan,
That week in Bath still remains in my thoughts. Watching Black Books all night with your friends and listening to you playing the guitar.
BTW; I am sorry for disappearing.
