Biography

I graduated from Coventry University in 2016 with a BSc Midwifery (Hons) 1st class, and since then, I have gained extensive experience working across a variety of clinical settings, including both hospital and community care. My passion lies in promoting and supporting physiological birth, particularly for birthing people who may be considered 'high risk' and their care planning. This commitment has guided much of my practice and research interests.

In 2024, I completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Practice Education with distinction at Bournemouth University, further enhancing my skills in education and academia. I am currently completing an MRes at Bournemouth University, with expected completion in January 2025. Following this, I am excited to embark on a PhD exploring maternal and neonatal morbidities associated with gestational diabetes, aiming to contribute to the field through impactful research.
