Academic Quality and Development

I completed my Master's degree in Chemistry at the University of Reading. Throughout my degree, I carried out numerous lab experiments and took part in a research project exploring the binding of Ruthenium metal complexes to DNA quadruplexes. After graduating I gained 2 years' experience designing and creating virtual lab simulations specializing in higher education science topic at Labster. I am inspired by the immersive learning experiences and am hoping to bring that skill and creativity to courses created for the University, whilst maintaining the quality of the pedagogy.
