Biography

I am currently a Lecturer in Adult Nursing, teaching across the apprenticeship delivery programmes of BSc Adult Nursing and the FdSc Nursing Associate. I am a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. I hold two Bachelors degrees, in Adult Nursing and Midwifery and I hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education. I have also completed several modules within the Open University, including Social Sciences, Molecular formation of drugs and Health and Social Care. I am studying an MSc in Nursing Studies, currently I am completing a research project that considers the use of social media to support learners on the Nursing Associate Programme. 

Prior to my career in academia, I have qualified as an Adult Nurse and a Midwife, working across Wales and England. I have experience in acute care, including Emergency Care, Theatres, Surgical and Medical wards and assessment units. I spent several years supporting nursing education within the NHS, creating and running study days to ensure that staff were providing evidence based care.
