I am currently working as a Senior Teaching Fellow in Operating Department Practice at the University of Portsmouth. I have previously held roles as a clinical skills facilitator and have worked at Princess Anne Hospital in Southampton in which I have worked as an Anaesthetic and Surgical practitioner specialising in Obstetrics and women's health. I have recently started a Professional Doctorate in Health Science in which my focus is to develop a 3-5 day simulation based course aimed at undergraduate ODP students in which they can develop their skills and knowledge of working within obstetric theatres.
