I have always tried to understand what really motivates me and “gets me out of bed” in order to steer my decisions in that direction. It is also about taking opportunities that come by and sometimes taking a leap of faith
My research training set me up to… Organise my time and available resources efficiently and understand the value of determination and perseverance.
I consider myself a permanent student and I am always curious
The problem-solving aspect is what I enjoy the most and the direct impact/value my work has is very rewarding.
I’m very glad I did a PhD. Going through the experience made me a much better teacher.
Consulting seemed like a natural place to apply the analytical skills that I’d gained during my PhD, whilst providing the opportunity for enormous professional development.
I think the really key part of a PhD is learning how to break a problem down into solvable steps.
I love working in a challenging, diverse and fast-paced environment with a great team of people who make work fun and enjoyable.
Thanks to my background I am comfortable dealing with inventions based on creative science and have a strong understanding of the research environments in academia and industry.
