During my time in Cardiff I helped teach/supervise on the Undergraduate Dental course but also taught practical radiography for the Post-Grad Dental X-ray course for Dental Nurses.
Since then I have worked at Derriford Hospital where I am the Lead Radiographer and Radiation Protection Supervisor in the Maxillio-Facial department. This year was my first year teaching first year undergraduates on the BDs and Dental Therapist courses at Plymouth University Peninsula Schools of Medicine & Dentistry.
I am also expanding my own knowledge by studying for a CT Facial Bone and Sinus Reporting course with the intent of becoming a Reporting Radiographer
