He completed his PhD at the UCL Institute of Archaeology on the history and development of commercial activity in the UK museum and heritage sector. He was then part of the research team for the Mapping Museums project at Birkbeck, and later Museums in the Pandemic, which examined how museums responded to the Covid-19 pandemic through their social media use.
