Short biography

I have specialised in neuro-oncology and SRS for 10 years. I have extensive experience in service delivery across the private and public sectors in the UK and New Zealand. As a BNOS council member, I am committed to ensuring the voices of our service users and their loved ones are heard.

I am currently writing my MSc dissertation in Health Science – with my research investigating role expansion of the non-medical expert practitioner in radiotherapy to the brain. I am passionate about working collaboratively with other professions across the multidisciplinary team while promoting the role of the therapeutic radiographer in the neuro-oncology pathway.
