I am a Senior Lecturer in the School of Electrical, Electronic and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Bristol. Research and my teaching is based primarily around batteries. I am a member of the Electrical Energy Management Group, where I manage a research team working on various aspects of battery research, including cell and pack modelling and model validation, the effect of termperature on battery performance and lifetime, second-life battery diagnostics and future sustainability of the battery industry with Sodium-ion batteries.

I completed my PhD in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Bristol in 2016, specialising in transient heat transfer and non-destructive diagnostics of multiphase flows. I worked for SUEZ Advanced Solutions UK, designing equipment closely linked to this PhD topic, and as a Research Associate at Queen Mary University of London, modelling convection cooling capabilities of low powered air-moving devices. I spent 3.5 years in the Electrochemical Science and Engineering at Imperial College London, developing my knowledge and research independence in battery academia, before moving to the University of Bristol in August 2021.
