BIO

As a Senior Research Fellow I am investigating the interactions of materials surfaces with their environments in areas such as battery materials, corrosion, minerals processing and lubrication and supervising PhD students across these areas. As a supervisor my aim is to work with the candidate towards an outcome within the research area that works best for them and their future career. Through leading student supervision processes and quality with IFMs Graduate Research Co-ordinators since 2024 I have made significant contributions to supervision quality and student outcomes.
