I gained my BEng Chemical Engineering from the University of Strathclyde in 2001 and subsequently spent two years working with ExxonMobil, within their Process Technology and Applications Division at Fawley Refinery in Southampton. I then returned to Strathclyde to undertake an EngD within the EPSRC Medical Devices Doctoral Training Centre, and was among the first cohort of students to gradaute from the centre in 2008. Following a period of post-doctoral research carried out jointly between the Strathclyde Institute of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences and the Biomedical Engineering Department, I took up my current position as Lecturer and Chancellor's Fellow in 2014.
