Specialising in neurology, my research was focused on different cellular models and their potential to depict mitochondrial dysfunction in Parkinson’s Disease.

As the co-director of a youth development program in America, I helped teenagers develop independence, self-confidence and leadership skills.

Highlights include: working the Ferrari suite at the F1 Grand Prix, bartending at a top New Zealand vineyard and perfecting my 'flair' cocktail making in Australia!

The Special Olympics provides various sporting opportunities to those with intellectual disabilities. I helped run the training sessions and coordinated all of the student volunteers for the Plymouth district.

I conducted social and market research on behalf of the Cancer Institute of Australia.

As part of the leadership team, I helped train new brand ambassadors in different sales techniques.

I helped create and implement strategies to increase student participation in volunteering throughout Plymouth- I was awarded 'young volunteer of the year' by Plymouths City Council.

Currently, I am helping review the policies for a similar charity to improve he sporting opportunities to athletes.
