ECA-funded PhD student at Uni of Edinburgh exploring King James VI & I's cultivation of a distinctly 'imperial' 'British' European image through art 🏛️
This experience was deeply special to me on a professional and personal level and I’m so glad so many others felt the same way - I’m happy to say the future of Jacobean studies is in very safe hands! 👑 (3/3) @kingjamesconf.bsky.social

The last 3 days have been absolutely incredible… so much excitement, encouragement and synergy amongst our speakers and attendees about this fascinating historical figure and the groundbreaking research he continues to inspire! (2/3) @kingjamesconf.bsky.social

I’m excited to feature in the History Scotland special issue on King James VI&I👑 Full of fantastic articles from top scholars and PGRs

I explore some of James’ portraits and I hope readers will visit the exhibition ‘The World of King James VI and I’ @nationalgalleries.bsky.social to see them!

Fantastic time at #RSA25 in Boston! Over the moon that my panel ‘Keeping Up Appearances: Royal Bodies at the Jacobean Court’ was a success! So grateful to
@emilyhay.bsky.social and @glonsber.bsky.social for their excellent papers - both will also be presenting at @kingjamesconf.bsky.social ! 👑
