Biography
With over 10 years’ experience in conducting clinical research using non-invasive imaging techniques to investigate vascular derangements in a range of clinical pathologies, including multiple sclerosis, post-acute sequelae of COVID-19, stroke, and diabetes, I extended my love for working with people by taking up a lectureship position at Ambrose University over the last two years. I am also a trained pre-clinical researcher using disease models. I am a wife and mum to three amazing children and my love for cooking and reading has me well prepared for my calling in my personal and professional life.
