- Profile
-
After graduating from the Hull-York York Medical School in 2016 with an intercalated degree in Clinical Anatomy from the University of Leeds, I joined the University of Sheffield during my academic foundation programme.
I completed a PGCME and subsequently an MSc in Health Professions Education alongside my clinical training in emergency medicine. I now divide my time between working clinically as an A&E registrar and academically within AUME as a University Teacher.
I currently primarily teach undergraduate anatomy but have experience in lecturing, facilitating ILAs, teaching clinical skills, delivering simulation-based education, question writing and blueprinting.
