What I'm looking for

I'm transitioning into Medical Affairs, Scientific Communications, Pharmacovigilance or Clinical Research, where I can apply my clinical expertise, evidence generation and scientific communication experience.

At University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust, I review complex renal therapeutics and translate emerging evidence into practice recommendations, including a critical review of dapagliflozin for heart failure in peritoneal dialysis.

I designed and delivered a 159-patient audit of unlicensed apixaban use in haemodialysis, identifying gaps in guideline-supported indications and anti-factor Xa monitoring. I authored the abstract and presented the findings at the European Renal Association Congress.

I also designed and led a renal VTE-prophylaxis quality-improvement programme across 608 admissions and reviewed medicines-safety incidents, turning root-cause findings into SOP updates.

My work includes an India–UK study of 200 healthcare students, coordinating clinical placements for the full Year 4 MPharm cohort, and building Brighton Beyond Bites, a community-led digital platform spotlighting independent businesses. I'm transitioning into Medical Affairs, Scientific Communications, Pharmacovigilance or Clinical Research.
