I obtained my MMath at the University of Cambridge; my main area of interest was non-linear dynamics.
I came to the OU as a student in 2008, and have obtained BSc Molecular Science and BSc Open (focusing on Engineering and History).
In 2020 I became an Associate Lecturer, teaching on mathematics and science modules. I joined the School of Mathematics and Statistics as a Staff Tutor in 2022.
I am currently Deputy Director of Teaching.
I am currently a member of Senate, and am the Senate member on Qualifications and Assessment Committee
I have several interests within the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning:-
I am Chair of MST124 B presentation, and on the module team for MST224 and MST210.
