Reece Goodall
I am one of the Directors of Student Experience and Progression for the Faculty of Arts. I have completed a PhD in French Studies on contemporary horror media in France, funded by an SMLC Doctoral Fellowship, under the supervision of Prof Mary Harrod and Dr Douglas Morrey.
I am also the Communications Officer for WIHEA, and I have teaching responsibilities in the SMLC and the Department of Chemistry.
