Biography

Graduating from Staffordshire University in 2009 with a BSc (Hons) in Forensic Science, I began my career as a Forensic Scene Investigator for West Midlands Police. With 10 years practical field experience, I gained qualifications in Crime Scene Investigation and Practical Fire Investigation before moving to Keele as a Teaching Fellow in 2019 and then became a lecturer in 2020.

In 2021, I successfully completed the Level 2 Bloodstain Pattern Analysis training course.
