I was IRCHSS Research Fellow for the duration of my MA and PhD (1999-2001; 2002-2005) research in the School of Law and Government, Dublin City University, under the supervision of Professor Robert Elgie.  I then conducted postdoctoral research in the Department of Political Science, Trinity College Dublin under Professor Raj Chari.

I am a senior research fellow and lecturer in International Political Economy, Comparative Politics and Irish Politics in the Technological University Dublin. 

I research public policy, policy change and lobbying policy/regulation and have published extensively in international political science.  I have written and edited a number of books on global lobbying regulations, Irish politics and society, and research methodology.

From 2011 to 2015 I consulted with the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform on what became the Regulation of Lobbying Act (2015).  I have also presented the evidence of my research to foreign governments, including the lower house of the Czech Parliament in Prague, the Political and Constitutional Reform Committee and Committee on Standards in Public Office of the UK House of Commons, and to the Scottish parliament in Edinburgh. 

I have a proven track record in research, publication, and teaching, and am dedicated to maintaining high standards in all three areas. 

In all, I have won three IRCHSS research fellowships, conducted two postdoctoral research projects, and hold membership in the Political Studies Association of Ireland, the Political Studies Association (UK), and the American Political Science Association. 

I am currently a co-director of the Technological University Dublin Research Centre for Business, Society and Sustainability, and a College of Business Senior Research Fellow. 

I recently edited the volume Policy Paradigms in Theory and Practice with Michael Howlett of SFU.

I serve on the editorial boards of a number of international political science journals and am a reviewer for political sciences journals in the US, Canada, the UK, Europe, and Australia. 

From 2016 to 2018 I was chair of the Comparative Policy Section of the Midwest Political Science Association in the US.
