Anna read for a BA in Jurisprudence, MSc in Criminology and PhD in Criminology at the University of Oxford (Oriel College and Green Templeton College). There, she taught Criminal Law and ran Study Skills classes on academic writing and a range of other academic skills. After completing her PhD, she worked as an Associate Lecturer in Criminology at the University of Exeter (2016-2017), where she taught Sociology of Imprisonment, Victimology and Addiction.

Her doctoral work explored the sociological impact of long sentences on female partners of male prisoners in the UK, examining the themes of time, passage of time, gender, and family practices. She has completed research focusing on how a therapeutic prison is experienced by men who are serving sentences for sex offences with their own histories of sexual abuse perpetrated against them. She is currently undertaking a study on using video-call technology to maintain family ties across prison walls. She also produces theoretical work on stigma experienced by families of people in prison and how it located within the broader socio-political context (neoliberalism, poverty, gender, race).

She is a regular presenter at a number of conferences (British Society of Criminology, European Society of Criminology), and contributes to media coverage of criminal justice issues.
