As a run coach, I develop and manage tailored training programs for beginner and intermediate runners, focusing on building sustainable habits and helping each athlete achieve their personal running goals. My approach is data-driven, using key performance metrics like pace and effort levels to make strategic adjustments to training plans on a weekly.

As a publisher at IOP Publishing, I manage a portfolio of three scientific journals: Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, Electronic Structure, and Superconductor Science and Technology. My role involves market analysis, strategic planning, and managing projects to drive journal growth and impact.I excel in identifying key areas for growth, developing.

• I served as the main point of contact between departmental faculty and postgraduate students. My responsibilities included:
• Assisting the CTO with lab demonstrator timetables to ensure a fair distribution of hours among postgraduate students.
• Addressing any postgraduate concerns at a faculty level and providing support as needed.
• Facilitating communication between faculty and postgraduate students to ensure a smooth and effective learning environment.
• Collaborating with faculty members to develop and implement policies and procedures that promote academic excellence and student success.
• Providing guidance and mentorship to postgraduate students to help them navigate their academic programs and achieve their goals.

During my PhD, I focused on synthesizing silicon and germanium nanowires for energy storage and single nanowire devices, developing expertise in synthetic and materials chemistry via liquid precursor chemical vapour deposition (CVD). I also gained experience in batteries, transistors, and a range of materials science characterization techniques.As part of.

During my PhD I was an active and involved member of the Young Engineers and Scientists (YES) Bernal committee. YESBernal's aim is to organize technical and social events for young researchers at the Institute. I joined the committee during the COVID-19 pandemic, when I felt the organization could help isolated students. We successfully organized many.

I spent the final year of my PhD working with Prof Jim Cahoon at the University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill.Here, I developed a range of skills. Particularly in nanofabrication and electrical characterization of single silicon and germanium nanowires. Also gained extensive experience using a home built CVD system.

• Completed cooperative education placement at Aughinish Alumina. My role here was as a quality analyst. My main duties included conducting quality analysis of alumina, hydrate and bauxite. For my placement I performed.
• XRD and XRF using fused beads and pressed powder pellets
• TGA and DSC
• BET Surface Area
• Bulk Density
• Size analysis and Attrition Index by electroformed sieves and Malvern

Awarded a research bursary by Prof Michael Zaworotko to work with the Crystal Engineering Research Group in UL. My project was titled “Levulinic Acid Cocrystals”. I used my own initiative and carried out a variety of experiments to try and produce cocrystals of levulinic acid using a range of different coformers. Experiments performed included slow.
