Bywgraffiad
Rwy'n gyn-weithiwr cymdeithasol gyda 17 mlynedd o brofiad gwasanaethau plant statudol gan gynnwys, rheoli ac ymarfer rheng flaen; Contractio a chomisiynu; a gwaith datblygu strategol. Dechreuais fy ngyrfa academaidd fel ymchwilydd meintiol, gan wneud PhD yn seiliedig ar ddadansoddi data gweinyddol a gasglwyd yn rheolaidd a dadansoddiad Cymru ar gyfer y Prosiect Anghydraddoldebau Lles Plant pedair cenedl (https://www.coventry.ac.uk/research/research-directories/current-projects/2014/child-welfare-inequality-uk/). Rwyf bellach wedi symud tuag at wneud ymchwil dulliau mwy cymysg.
