Biography

After qualifying with a BSSc in Psychology from Queen's University Belfast, I completed a PhD at the University of Leeds and worked there as a Research Fellow before returning to student life to study Medicine. I completed my academic foundation training in York, was a NIHR Academic Clinical Fellow in Sheffield during my GP training, and then moved to Manchester to take up a post as an NIHR Clinical Lecturer in Primary Care.
