Profile

In 2017, I enrolled onto Plant Biology BSc course at Aberystwyth University and found a passion in studying environmental impacts on plants during my undergraduate dissertation project. After this, I wanted to continue researching plants but from a different perspective, with end goal use at the forefront of the investigation. My MPhil project allowed me to gain perspective on how the nutritive value of grass can impact animal health. Currently, I am writing up my PhD thesis investigating the impact of drought on the plant metabolome in wheat.

In my personal life, I love to be in nature and by the ocean. When I’m not working, I teach and practice aerial fitness.
