About

I started my career at the University of Derby as a research fellow in 2016 and have since transitioned into my current role as a lecturer focused on prosthetics and orthotics. I am a part of the prosthetics and orthotics subject team and am responsible for teaching related programmes in these areas.

My research aims to assess how prosthetic and orthotic devices affect the lives of individuals with amputation and physical disabilities. I focus on objective and subjective manufacturing methods to enhance clinical effectiveness and improve users' experiences. Additionally, I research the development and analysis of rehabilitation interventions to improve the physical and mental well-being of individuals suffering from chronic physical conditions.
