About Me
I studied history (specialising on the Renaissance) and criminology at university but gained exposure to data work during my PhD studies in quantitative criminology. Initially I worked with sensitive social and economic data and supported research projects to use data safely. I then moved to Cancer Research UK where I oversaw the creation of infrastructure where patients' medical records could be stored and analysed.
I initially joined GHGA as a Data Steward, but I am now responsible for coordinating our legal- and data protection- related work. In this role I support the development, maintainence, and implementation of GHGA's documentation and contracts. I also have an interest in data protection training within a research context and co-lead the ASSURED Project .
