2025 has been the amazing year that brought our son Charlie to me and my husband (he's just learned to walk 👣 ). I am so grateful to Professor Adelyn Wilson and the University of Strathclyde for allowing me to spend a semester on parental leave and then another on family-friendly research leave. This is a testament to the Law School and wider University's commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion 🌈 . 

I resume my teaching and administrative duties today with renewed energy and enthusiasm and I cannot wait to welcome the new students of our LLM/MSc Law, Technology and Innovation next week 🤖 ⚖️ ! 

I am deeply thankful to Dr Birgit Schippers for providing amazing stewardship to the master's and tech law research group during my absence, I know she'll enjoy a much-deserved semester of research leave 🤗 . 

I'm also looking forward to meeting my colleagues in and outwith Strathclyde Law School to resume our collaborations and explore new, exciting ones! ✨
