Biography

I am an ST4 dual training in anaesthetics and ICM in East of England, having previously completed core anaesthetic training in Thames Valley.  I am one of four AiT reps on Council and I also co-chair the the Anaesthetist-in-Training Committee.  

I am particularly interested in regional anaesthesia, ICM, obstetric anaesthesia and equal access of opportunity in anaesthesia training. I have conducted previous research from a local to an international level in investigating how men and women experience regional anaesthetic training differently. To this end, I am also a member of the #thisgirlblocks international social media campaign to promote women in regional anaesthesia.

Outside of anaesthesia I enjoy overly complicated board games, dungeons and dragons, cycling and attempting to learn the piano. Cheese (the eating of) also ranks highly on my list of pastimes.

Register of Interests

I am a committee member of the #thisgirlblocks social media campaign to promote female representation and involvement in regional anaesthesia. This is a voluntary role in my spare time for which there is no renumeration except a warm fuzzy feeling of doing something good.
