I am an experienced Registered Nurse (Learning Disabilities) (RNLD) (NMC), qualified nurse lecturer (TCH), Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA), and masters-level graduate with varied clinical, teaching and management experience, with strong communication and information technology skills.
During my years as a registered nurse I have developed a specialist interest in the health needs of people with a learning/ intellectual disability in particular those individuals who have Profound Intellectual and/or Multiple Disabilities (PIMD/ PMLD).
Research interests
In my early research career my focus has been on how nurses use eLearning in Professional Education.
