    I am an independent and ambitious researcher determined to provide solutions for real world problems, particularly on the impact of our environment on the ocular surface. I have experience in developing collaborations with key          research and industry partners to progress my research aims. My experience as a clinical optometrist over the last decade shapes my research goals to develop evidence-based guidelines on managing manage ocular surface            disease which occurs due to poor air quality.
