About Me

Personal Life

My family is my everything! I have a five year old daughter, who is truly my best friend in the whole word. We have a cockapoo who my daughter fully believes is her sister :) I'm a hopeless romantic who falls more and more in love with my husband each day!

Professional life

I'm a full-time researcher and am currently completing the final year of my PhD. I love research and have published over 40 peer-reviewed articles! However, I've found that researching and writing fictional scenarios is much more fun.
