I actively promote the MCFP to existing and potential academic and industry users through seminars, workshops, and liaising with external partnerships and networks. I maintain the Platform's website and LinkedIn network, creating and delivering high-quality content to engage new researchers with Platform capabilities, fostering new collaborative opportunities.

Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

I manage the electron and ion microscopy (SEM and HIM), vibrational spectroscopy (Raman and FTIR), and X-ray characterisation (XRD and XRF) capabilities within MCFP. I am actively training researchers, transferring and developing knowledge in materials characterisation, and seek out and engage new collaborative academic and industry research projects.

I was an integral part of a project team to establish, implement and roll-out a University-wide booking system for our Research Platforms. I lead the Community of Practice at the University, engaging with existing and newly onboarded research platforms to establish a collaborative network of staff and users that facilitated communication into the project, and the creation of community standards, recommendations, and user guide documents and videos.

At the National EPSRC XPS Users' Service (NEXUS) I held a Senior Research Associate position where I managed and operated a number of surface analysis instruments, including three XPS instruments, a hybrid XPS/SEM/STM, and a Zeiss ORION NanoFab helium ion microscope. The facility also operates an Iontof ToF-SIMS IV and Ionoptika J105 Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometer.Alongside collaborative and service research as part of NEXUS, my own research centered on the application of advanced XPS… Show more At the National EPSRC XPS Users' Service (NEXUS) I held a Senior Research Associate position where I managed and operated a number of surface analysis instruments, including three XPS instruments, a hybrid XPS/SEM/STM, and a Zeiss ORION NanoFab helium ion microscope.

As a member of the Steering Group for NanoLAB (a collective of research groups within Newcastle University), I am part of the decision making process for the direction in which the research group follows. I assist in obtaining funding to bring in external visitors for seminars, planning events over the medium to long terms, and help to delegate time and facilities amongst members.

I assist in obtaining funding to bring in external visitors for seminars, planning events over the medium to long terms, and help to delegate time and facilities amongst members. Recently I was involved in the allocation of small pieces of equipment from another facility into NanoLAB and ensure these instruments were distributed fairly and into laboratories that could be accessed by the entire University.

Managing the surface analysis and plasma modification laboratory at the Centre for Nanoscale Science and Technology at Flinders University. This involved operating and maintaining the Leybold LHS-10 X-ray Photoelectron Spectrometer and an in-house built radio-frequency inductively-coupled plasma reactor.

Adelaide, Australia

I presented a set of undergraduate first year physics lectures surrounding classical and Newtonian mechanics, laws of motion, and friction. This was typically to an audience of 100+ students studying a wide range of courses for where a fundamental understanding of physics was a pre-requisite.

Doctor Of Philosophy (Ph.D.), Nanotechnology And Surface Analysis

I studied the sidewall fluorination of single-walled carbon nanotubes and carbon surfaces using radio-frequency SF6 plasma. Analysis.

Bachelor Of Science (Bsc), Nanotechnology, 1St Class Honours, University Medal
