Lisa S. McNeill, PhD, BCom (Hons), BA (Otago). I am an Associate Professor in the 
Department of Marketing, Otago Business School. My research and teaching interests are in consumer behaviour, specifically in relation to identity construction and retail consumption. The core focus of my research is consumer choice, particularly as it applies to fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) industries, often fast fashion. Current research explores alternative models for fashion consumption, including collaborative consumption, and I am a panelist at the European Roundtable for Sustainability in Consumption & Production on this topic. A second, related, stream of my research examines youth consumption behaviours, and explores the socialisation of young consumers by parents, the media, finance and consumer goods industries. This draws together retailing and consumer behaviour theory to focus on young consumers, on fashion and textile marketing, and on sustainability.
