I am currently working as an echocardiographer within Ultracardiac Ltd (a private company operating in the South-West of England). Prior to this I worked at the Royal Cornwall Hospital, initially as a Healthcare Support Worker then progressing in the field of healthcare over a 7-yr period, gaining experience within Cardiac, Vascular and Respiratory Sciences, specialising in Cardiology. I went on to complete a MSc in Cardiac Science at Manchester Metropolitan University, alongside completing a Scientific Training Programme allowing me to hold the title of Clinical Scientist in the UK. I am both SCST and BSE accredited, specialising in Echocardiography. I am also an end-point assessor for Bristol University, assisting in the growth of Cardiac Physiologists in the UK.
I am passionate about healthcare development, education delivery and optimising patient care. I am excited to be given the opportunity to work with the GUSI team to provide POCUS training to primary healthcare providers, aiming to streamline patient care delivery in the UK, reducing waiting times and unnecessary referrals.
