Trosolwyg
Rwy'n Gymrawd Ymchwil Gwyddorau Cymdeithasol sydd â diddordeb mewn tai, datgarboneiddio system ynni a thlodi tanwydd. Ar hyn o bryd rwy'n arwain prosiect cyflawni effaith mewn cydweithrediad â Stride Treglown, sy'n archwilio sut y gellir integreiddio mewnwelediadau o ymchwil ar brofiadau preswylwyr i ddylunio cartrefi carbon isel newydd. Mae'r prosiect hwn yn rhan o Gyfrif Cyflymu Effaith Seiliedig ar Le EPSRC rhyngddisgyblaethol The SWITCH to Net Zero Buildings. Rwyf hefyd yn gweithio fel rhan o thema Amgylchedd a Chynaliadwyedd BR-UK, consortiwm ymchwil a ariennir gan ESRC sy'n archwilio ymchwil ymddygiadol.
Mae fy ngwaith presennol yn canolbwyntio ar brofiadau preswylwyr o dai carbon isel newydd arloesol. Yn benodol, mae'r ffocws ar ddysgu am ddatblygiadau arloesol yng Nghymru a sut y gall adborth preswylwyr lywio dyluniadau'r dyfodol, gan gynnwys mewn perthynas â gorboethi yn yr haf. Rwy'n gweithio'n rheolaidd gyda rhanddeiliaid polisi ac ymarfer i gefnogi cymhwyso mewnwelediadau ymchwil yn ymarferol.
Mae gen i brofiad o ystod o brosiectau ymchwil mewn meysydd cysylltiedig, gan archwilio ynni mewn bywyd bob dydd, datgarboneiddio, tlodi tanwydd a bregusrwydd ynni. Mae gen i hefyd brofiad o weithio fel rhan o gonsortia rhyngddisgyblaethol mawr ochr yn ochr â Pheirianwyr a Phenseiri a darparu addysgu trawsddisgyblaethol.
Rwy'n arbenigo mewn dulliau ansoddol, yn enwedig dulliau hydredol ansoddol lle mae'r un cyfranogwyr yn cael eu hailymweld ar nifer o achlysuron dros amser. Mae gen i hefyd brofiad o ddatblygu dulliau methodolegol creadigol i'w defnyddio o fewn a thu allan i gyfweliadau ac rwyf wedi darparu hyfforddiant i'r NCRM ar y pwnc hwn.
Gan adlewyrchu fy nghefndir mewn ymchwil teuluoedd a pherthnasoedd, rydw i ar fwrdd golygyddol Teuluoedd, Perthnasoedd a Chymdeithasau.
