Nurturing dreams and building futures

Vision

Imagine a world where everyone is examined, diagnosed, and treated according to their unique composition. A world where personalised medicine is the benchmark by which all clinical practice revolves.

I’m on a mission
to make my vision a reality.

Journey funded and supported by

More Research, Less Cancer.

I had the pleasure of being involved in the latest campaign by Cancer Research UK “More Research, Less Cancer.” The campaign calls on high-value donors and philanthropists to raise £400m to tackle the disease, making it the largest ever philanthropic campaign by a UK charity. 

Welcome to my life in the translation-sphere, where I’ve encountered some fascinating individuals, complex systems, unique opportunities, and incredibly insightful lessons. Tucked within my stories is the information that has led me to my current station as a Translation Scholar at The Francis Crick Institute. My hope is to inspire others to share their unique talents with the world.

May we all find the freedom to pursue our dreams and the courage to live them.
