I qualified in dentistry at Newcastle University in 1999. I undertook orthodontic specialty training in Newcastle and Middlesbrough, then completed my post-CCST training in Sheffield and Mexborough. I have been a Consultant Orthodontist at the Cumberland Infirmary in Carlisle since 2010. Education is my special interest and I have a Masters’ degree in Clinical Education from Newcastle University, obtained in 2013. I am responsible for organising and delivering the orthodontic teaching programme for undergraduate dental students at UCLan Dental School. I am Training Programme Director for specialty training in orthodontics in the North East and Cumbria. I am also an examiner for the Membership in Orthodontics examination at the Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh and Chair of the Board of Examiners for the MSc in Orthodontics at Newcastle University.
