Each day is a celebration ... a day that I am determined to live fully.

I go by Fiorghra (it's Irish Gaelic) on here but you can also call me Jenn.

I'm a PhD student in Social Psychology, researching the experience of emotion through the lenses of neuroscience, physiology, linguistics and cognitive science. In particular, I study how we use feedback from our bodies to understand - and even create - our feelings and emotions.

Before I became a psychologist, I lived for nearly 4 years in North Wales, UK, studying Welsh language and medieval literature. I speak Cymraeg/Welsh. I love travelling whenever I can break away from PhD work.
