Teaching

I am the Teaching Fellow for Communications and Outreach since the beginning of December 2014. I will be responsible for coordinating the following:

Athena SWAN

I am the Athena SWAN coordinator for the Department of Computing and the Chair of the Computing Inclusion and Diversity Committee. We are working on our next Athena SWAN submissions and implementing actions to promote equality and diversity in the department at all career levels.

Outreach

I developed and manage an outreach programme for the department. Using our own students and alumni we delver activities to inspire children (especially girl) to study and pursue a career in computing. You can see our programmes in our outreach page.

Other

I am the Academic Leader for the Anita Borg Institute Local London. We have organised the first one day Grace Hopper Celebration outside the USA. The event celebrated women in technology and attracted almost 300 female technologists at all career stages. The Department paid for 3 female students to attend the event as part of our commitment to support the careers of our female cohort .

I am currently doing a PG Diploma in University Teaching and Learning

Bio

I previously worked at the University of Nottingham’s Graduate School in Researcher Training and Development.

From 2010 to 2014, I worked at the University of Leicester in Outreach and Marketing and I was the Earth and Planetary Sciences Teaching Fellow for the Natural Sciences Programme. I completed my PGCHE during this period.

I was the co-founder of an IT consultancy company and the Managing Director from 2009 to 2013.

For my PhD, at the Open University, I analysed extra-terrestrial samples (meteorites from asteroids, Mars and the Moon, and comet samples) using various spectroscopy techniques.
