Evie completed her undergraduate Psychology degree at the University of Leeds in 2025, alongside a 12-month NHS placement with Born in Bradford’s Centre for Applied Education Research. Her work focused on childhood inequalities, special educational needs, and improving early identification. She contributed to the N8 Research Partnership reports and the #ChildFirstGovernment campaign, particularly the autism report, and was employed by the University of Leeds to develop psychoeducation booklets for children experiencing challenges related to autism and ADHD.

Evie’s research interests include special educational needs, school readiness, intersecting vulnerabilities, structural inequalities, and early identification.

Evie’s PhD ‘Cross-sector insights using linked public service data’ investigates how individual vulnerabilities cluster across childhood and adolescence, with attention to regional variation. It explores how inequalities shape trajectories of public service use and aims to identify early indicators of high-risk multi-agency involvement such as mental health crisis, NEET status, and contact with the criminal justice system.
