Wearing glasses from a young age meant I developed a great relationship with our local optometrist and that sparked my interest in this career. Indeed, two of my sisters are also optometrists, maybe it was something in the water!
After graduating from Manchester University in 2012 I moved to Bristol. This is where I grew from a young newly qualified optometrist to the more confident, experienced clinician I am now. Working in both big and small teams, supervising students, and furthering my career by completing extra qualifications involving cataract, glaucoma, and minor injuries has only increased my love for this rewarding and ever-changing profession.

In early 2022 I moved to London, and Taylor-West & Co welcomed me to their tight-knit team as the resident Optometrist in the Dulwich branch. I love working in a practice with top-of-the-range equipment, time given to effectively discuss and manage any patient concerns, and working alongside a fantastic, dynamic and progressive team who are equipped with both great ophthalmic knowledge and great fashion sense!

After struggling with myopia from a young age I have developed a keen interest in the methods used to manage myopia progression amongst children and the new technologies which are constantly being developed.

Outside of work I enjoy travelling, craft work, exercise, climbing, and cooking.
