I joined the University of Huddersfield in 2021 as a Senior Lecturer in Advanced Clinical Practice.

I am a Registered Nurse and an Advanced Nurse Practitioner with a wealth of experience across Primary, Secondary and Tertiary NHS and Private healthcare settings. I have experience of clinical research, leadership, governance and clinical practice and am committed to delivery high quality care and improving services for the benefit of patients.  I have worked as a Registered Nurse both in the UK and Australia.

I continue to work clinically as an Advanced Nurse Practitioner to ensure my clinincal practice knowledge and skills remain up to date.  I use this experience to inform my teaching across various programmes within the School.

My research interests lie within the broad field of Digital Health.  In particular I am interested in the use of electronic systems by clinical staff, and how clinicians interact with the technology.

I am currently undertaking my PhD at the University of Manchester looking at the use of Machine Learning systems by nurses.

My research interests are broad, but I am particularly interested in applied research that can help improve life for patients and staff within the healthcare system.
