"I am a highly motivated, dynamic and versatile forensic scientist specialising in human rights advocacy with a reputation for combining my practical experience with my extensive professional network and academic achievements. I work at senior management level in the UK Criminal Justice System as well as holding the co-chair position for the Wales board of a genocide education charity. Driven by supporting those who do not have a voice I have worked tirelessly with Ministers of Wales to make change nationally and across the UK and I am determined to progress to make a significant difference to the equality and human rights of the global population; being particularly interested in the topic of displaced and missing persons from international conflict. Passionate about developing and maintaining the highest standards, I am renowned for supporting fellow practitioners, colleagues and the future generations; as well as all of those who contribute to the various teams and advisory committees I am involved with".
