Ann is a Senior lecturer at Liverpool Business School working in the area of sustainability, ethics and responsibility. Ann is an active member of PRME UK&I and PRME North West.

She is a CMBE, Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, Associate Member of the Chartered Institute of Marketing, Member of the Tourism Society and Associate Member of the Institute of Environmental Management & Assessment.

Ann is an active researcher with interests in the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly around climate change, health & wellbeing and decent work.

Ann's previous experience includes delivery on modules from Level 4 to Level 8 and supervision of dissertations and theses from Level 6-8.

She has previously developed and delivered on courses from Chester Business School, the University of Surrey, Bournemouth University, Kingston University, and Chartered Institute of Marketing.

Ann has experience of working with non-traditional learners and with international students from Europe, Asia, South America, Middle East, and Africa.

Ann has an extensive travel background with experience gained in industry and supporting organisations, both in the UK and overseas. Her tour operating experience stretches back to Sir Freddie Laker’s Skytrain and the International Leisure Group, through to the Thomas Cook and TUI groups. For Portuguese SME’s she designed and developed excursions programmes employing local staff and facilities. Whilst in London advertising agencies Ann worked on accounts from English Country Cottages to Ladbroke Holidays and Iberia Airlines of Spain to Gibraltar National Tourist Office.

Ann studied her PhD part time and completed in just over three years. Her study sought to investigate the complex and interrelated influences affecting tourists’ decisions to visit destinations, which are disappearing due to climate change. She examined tourist perceptions of climate change and of the impacts of tourism related travel, within the context of values, knowledge, beliefs, and motivations and the relationship that these have with ethics. Projective techniques were specifically selected to yield richer data as respondents often elicit socially desirable responses in ethical research.
