About Me:
I work as a medical researcher in Oxford but also love to keep fit and spend time with my friends and family. At the moment I am training for a triathlon and making planters out of recycled wood for my windowsill!

My Typical Day:
No day is ever the same which is what makes it exciting! I typically spend it doing experiments in the lab (white lab coat, safety glasses and gloves) and chatting to co-workers to come up with new exciting ideas. I also teach some others both in the lab and classroom, and sometimes go to lessons myself because there is always more to learn!
