Biography
As a qualified Occupational Therapist specialising on orthopaedics, I currently work at the University of Essex as an OT lecturer and Programme Lead for the OT Degree Apprenticeship (OTDA). I have been employed by the University since 2017 and have gone from working as a practice educator in placements to my current role. Within this time I have also completed an MSc in Medical and Clinical Education and I am a qualified moving and handling trainer.
