About Me

With four children to ferry around I am mainly a taxi service outside of working hours, but when I have the opportunity, I like to run.

Role Summary

Experience and Accomplishments

I helped develop the GCRF stream of funding at Â鶹´«Ã½ and have had success in supporting applications form the MRC, RAEng, BA, and RS amongst others.
