After my doctoral studies, I spent two years working as a post-doctoral researcher and teaching fellow in the section of Life Sciences. During this time, I undertook PGCAP training (CCCU) and received a Postgraduate Certificate in Academic Practice allowing me to attain Fellowship of the HEA. I started my lecture post as a Human Biologist in 2018. Ever since I was little, I was always fascinated with how human body works, and this lectureship offers me an ideal opportunity to pass this passion to my students. I am especially interested in biological anthropology and how our ancestry shaped us the ‘modern humans’.
My other activities include being a course advocate for the Human Biology BSc course and I have promoted the course at Open Days, Applicant Days and on social media. Subsequently, I was appointed to the role of the Social Media Lead within the NAS Section (since 2022). I am hoping to further promote CCCU on the social media and have many exciting plans to invite outside speakers to our new Verena Holmes building.
