Biography

I'm a Senior Research Data Specialist working with the Data Access Portal, the Research Data Planner and the Data Archive Service. My role is about enabling good decision-making. I support researchers by building the tools, platforms, and systems that turn data into actionable evidence. I collaborate with stakeholders to ensure data practices are sustainable, compliant, and reduce risk. I mentor junior staff, develop training resources, and work across teams to align our work with best practice and legislation.
