Profile

My CV

• Education:

  I went to high school at Paraparaumu College in New Zealand. Between 2001 and 2004, I did an undergraduate degree at Victoria University in New Zealand. Then I decided I’d like to see more of the big bad world, so I moved to Austraila for a one year research project at the Australian National University. I loved research so much that I stayed at the Australian National University for a PhD between 2006-2009. In 2009 I moved to Cambridge, UK, where I have been a scientist ever since.

• Qualifications:

  Bachelor of Biomedical Science from Victoria University, Wellington. Biomedical Science Honours from the Australian National University and a PhD also from the Australian National University.

• Work History:

  When I was at high school I worked at BP as a fuel transfer technician, okay, I put petrol into people’s cars. While I was at University I was a checkout chick at a supermarket, a receptionist and a laboratory assistant. I was lucky enough to have a scholarship during my PhD, so I didn’t need to work. Now I work at the University of Cambridge.

• Current Job:

  Research Fellow
