I am currently a Lead Software Engineer at Redgate Software working on supporting our internal systems, with a particular focus on the Quote-to-Cash process and related services. I have previously been a Technical Lead for a different internal systems team, leading projects such as the reinvention of our license provisioning process. this role also included team and people management responsibilities. Prior to that I was a Software Engineer on two of Redgate's major products, SQL Monitor and Flyway, working primarily in .NET and Typescript/React. Before Redgate, I worked in Data Assurance and Analytics at PwC and have experience in data analytics, visualisation and other assurance engagements, primarily working with SQL Server. Furthermore, I developed a number of transferable skills through the completion of a PhD studying Mitochondrial tRNA mutations, including excellent project management and analytical skills, experience of presenting at large, international conferences and a strong portfolio of published, peer-reviewed scientific research.
I was a Technology Assurance and Advisory Senior Associate at PwC with a strong focus on Data Analytics and Assurance. This position combined bespoke data analytics, visualisation and database manipulation with data governance and assurance engagements.

This was a post-doctoral position at the Mitochondrial Biology Unit in Cambridge that was funded by the Medical Research Council. This work was an extension of my previous studies investing genetic mutations in the FBXL4 gene and was performed alongside Professor Massimo Zeviani.
This was a Post-Doctoral research position in the Mitochondrial Research Group at Newcastle University that expanded further upon two key projects initiated during my PhD. These projects were studies of genetic mutations in two genes: TRIT1 and FBXL4 and were performed alongside Professor Robert Taylor. The funding for this position was a £50,000 fellowship grant from the Medical Research Council that was awarded to me after a highly competitive application process. As part of this work, I spent several weeks working in the laboratory of a collaborator, Dr Richard Maraia at the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, USA.
During this period I completed a Research PhD funded by the Medical Research Council in the Mitochondrial Research Group under the guidance of Professor Robert Taylor, Dr Robert McFarland and Dr Joanna Elson. My resulting thesis was titled 'Identification and Characterisation of Novel Mitochondrial and Nuclear Mutations Associated with Mitochondrial Translation Defects'.
This was a part-time role as a Demonstrator in undergraduate practicals at Newcastle University. It involved hands-on teaching of experiments as well as review and marking of written coursework.
This was a summer laboratory placement in the Epithelial Research Group at Newcastle University under the tutelage of Dr Michael Gray.
