About Me

My education is a combination of engineering, medical and accelerator physics and have a strong research interest and training background in Particle Therapy: Proton Therapy.

I have a BSc from The University of Western Australia and an MSc (MedRadPhys with Dist.) from the Centre for Medical Radiation Physics (CMRP), University of Wollongong. My thesis was a study of the Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE) in proton beam therapy by application of a novel silicon microdosimeter.

In 2016 I was awarded a prestigious EU Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship to join the Optimization of Medical Accelerators (OMA) ITN project and completed my PhD in 2021 with the Accelerator Physics QUASAR group at the University of Liverpool and the Cockcroft Institute, UK. My PhD project involved studies into beam optics, characterisation and simulation modelling to support the development of novel beam diagnostics for charged particle therapy.

Outside of work, I play basketball, workout, and enjoy spending sunny days outside with good coffee and food.
