Profile: I have worked at the Clinical Trials Research Unit since October 2019. I first worked as a Trials Support Officer, then Research Assistant, before becoming a Study Manager in May 2024. Prior to joining the CTRU, I worked as a laboratory assistant; most recently as a Medical Laboratory Assistant at Hallamshire Hospital Cytology department.

I also have an integrated Masters in Biology from the University of Sheffield (2017), which primarily focussed on an independent research project on multispectral imaging to detect plant diseases.

Qualifications: Integrated Masters (MBiolSci) in Biology (1st) from the University of Sheffield (2017)
