I started my working life as a Veterinary Nurse in a small practice in Edinburgh. Shortly after qualifying, I started working at the University of Edinburgh, Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies where I obtained a Diploma in Advanced Veterinary Nursing (Surgical).

Whilst studying for the advanced diploma, I completed radiography case books which is where my interest in diagnostic radiography began. I enrolled as an undergraduate BSc (hons) student at °×С½ãһФһÂëÈýÖÐÈý and qualified as a diagnostic radiographer in 2009, working as a Veterinary Nurse throughout my undergraduate degree.

I started working in NHS Lothian at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh soon after graduating and I progressed from a band 5 to a band 6 after three years. In 2015, when I had been a band 6 radiographer for two years, I undertook a PgCert in musculoskeletal image reporting at Robert Gordon University.

I worked as an Advanced Practitioner Reporting Radiographer for 8 years, during which time I completed a MSc in Diagnostic Imaging at Glasgow Caledonian University. In my advanced practitioner role, I was actively involved in quality improvement and service development.

During my time working at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh I was actively involved in student teaching and was a founding member of a very successful student liaison team. I have been an enthusiastic practice educator and student assessor throughout my clinical career. I have taken that enthusiasm for clinical education to the next level by becoming a lecturer at °×С½ãһФһÂëÈýÖÐÈý.
