I am a Programme Manager for the UK Functional Genomics: Musculoskeletal Cluster and Project Manager within the Health Economics and Outcomes Research Group.
I thrive where complexity meets delivery. My project portfolio spans functional genomics platforms and health economics studies, connecting researchers, clinicians, industry partners and funders.
Before returning to programme management, I spent several years in HR roles across NDORMS, gaining an inside-out understanding of how academic environments function, adapt and grow. And before academia, I built my career in the private sector, managing major accounts and complex projects for high-profile clients including Warner Music, Warner Home Video, ITV and Sony. There I learned pace, precision, diplomacy and the art of keeping demanding stakeholders aligned across countries, time zones and shifting priorities—experience I draw on every day.
For me, good programme management is about clarity and intuition: seeing the whole picture, catching issues early and giving people the structure they need to do their best work.
I believe in work that moves with intelligence and ease—where digital tools sharpen focus, smart systems lighten the load, and emerging technologies widen the horizon. Yet at the centre of it all is the human thread: the conversations, the curiosity, the connections that give progress its pulse.
AI-fascinated, humanely yours :-). Always.
