I have over 20 years of experience in developing technology platforms (e.g. sensing) for applications in the food, environmental and life sciences. My research focuses on the grand global challenges facing humans namely, food security, water security and antimicrobial resistance. I have a passion for driving innovation and research from idea to laboratory all the way through to real-world applications - helping to solve problems and address these global challenges!
