Previous Experience

I have worked at Blackpool Teaching Hospitals since 2009 where I have mainly been based at Trinity Hospice but also working into oncology services at Blackpool Victoria Hospital, until recently joining the new cystic fibrosis team.

About Me

I love to travel and see new things in the UK and abroad and try new experiences. Until recently, I sang in Manchester Cathedral Choir for many years, having been in choirs since I was nine years-old.

I share Aoife’s passion for steak and blue cheese sauce – I sense a theme for team dinners!

I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel called Bruiser.
