Having spent the majority of my working life in the narrative aligned to STEM, I've recently moved to work in the SHAPE subjects and now feel I see the whole picture - and how it must all fit and work together as a whole - that's where the magic is😊

One of the things I enjoy every week is the time spent with my @Girlguiding Rainbows group 🌈 an amazing group of young girls who will make their impact on the world for sure. And to get a card like this is just 🥰🥰🥰 #newcastlegirlguiding

This was the most wonderful afternoon - if you get the chance to do something similar then please do 😊 looking forward to our second visit when we get to make exciting things and bring engineering to life!
The most wonderful afternoon with Yr3 and Yr4 at Seghill First School with @Literacy_Trust and #dreambigengineering the children had so many fantastic questions for us about a career in engineering and hopefully we inspired some engineering technicians of the future!

Fantastic to see two awards coming to @NorthumbriaUni (but also a very proud wife as one of these is for @DrPaulJamesUK) 🥳
Fashion and technology both have big sustainability issues - and biotech can help to solve them. We're funding researchers to harness biotechnology's power to tackle textile pollution & waste and improve recovery of valuable metals from used tech orlo.uk/O7lp7
