After 15 years working within scientific units for 3 police forces, I have now moved to ARU to teach on the Crime and Investigative Studies degree course.
I was employed as a Crime Scene Investigator from 2004 before moving into Digital Forensics in 2018 covering a wide variety of cases and investigations.
.After completing a degree in Applied Science and Forensic Measurement and a PgDip in Biotechnology at the University of Teesside, I was employed as a Crime Scene Investigator with Gwent Police for over 11 years. I continued my experience as a CSI as I moved to work with Lincolnshire Police for a further 18 months before moving to Northamptonshire Police in the role of Mobile Device Investigator.
I have completed the required professional courses from the College of Policing studying Crime Scene Investigation and Core Skills in Mobile Phone Forensics.
I have also gained a BTEC in Fire Investigation from the Fire Service College and professional competency from Cellebrite and XRY in Mobile Device Examination.
