I work for the Robert Gordon University as a Principal Lecturer in Marketing.  I currently co-ordinate our undergraduate Marketing module, and at a postgraduate level I am responsible for both Marketing Strategy and our Professional Skills Enhancement module (which includes placement opportunities for our students).  My role also involves me assisting in the teaching team for our postgraduate module Business Marketing and Innovation.  Additionally I am a course leader for MSc Corporate Communication and Public Affairs, and, MSc International Marketing.

My previous role in the university was as a Researcher with a focus on areas such as Women's Career Development/HSE/Competency issues in the oil and gas industry.  My current research interests lie in the area of consumer psychology, which underpins my part time PhD topic exploring the role of Nostalgia in Fans reaction towards change in Disney theme parks.

    Hi Tracy,

    I had been hoping to meet up with you yesterday at the F2F at the Copthorne.  I offer transcription services and as you work for RGU, l thought it best to speak to yourself to see if l could be of any help to any students, etc.  Please feel free to get in touch.  Many thanks, Moira.

    Hey Tracey - good to hear that you are still enjoying your work - thas all that matters! Yeah would love to catch up with you again - I am quite often in Aberdeen on business and we could maybe meet over lunch? You could let me know your availability and I could try to organise my diary accordingly. Things are manic at the moment and look forward to telling you all about it - best thing I have ever done Tracey - wish I did it years ago but then I would probably not have been ready - Tina xxx
