After qualifying as a Children’s nurse in 2012, I specialised in Paediatric Intensive Care, looking after critically ill children in areas such as neurology, cardiology, transplant, oncology and trauma. I then trained as Family Liaison Junior Sister, supporting children and families through palliative, end-of-life and safeguarding processes. I have also worked in community and outpatient settings and completed a Masters in Clinical Health Research, undertaking qualitative research exploring sibling experiences of children’s critical care. I currently work clinically as Paediatric Lead Nurse (South Devon & Cornwall) – Newcross National Critical Care Team. I love education and teaching both clinically and in higher education settings and currently work part-time clinically which compliments my teaching role. I have particular interests in advanced communication skills and conflict resolution and delivering trauma-informed practice. I am passionate about mental wellbeing and resilience among healthcare professionals and have disseminated research on these topics.
