Dumfries & Galloway Royal Infirmary
Cargenbridge, Dumfries, DG2 8RX
I am the Education Centre Manager and I work with our Directors of Medical Education and the rest of the team to quality assure the undergraduate and postgraduate medical education here in Dumfries. That’s really just a fancy way of saying that we work hard to ensure NHS D&G delivers the best medical education we can, supporting students, trainees and qualified staff to the best of our abilities.
I have a background in marketing in the private sector and general management in the NHS and almost all of the time I love my job and consider myself very lucky to work with such a great group of people.
When not here, I enjoy spending time with my family and socialising with my friends. As a department we are very keen on good coffee and I’m a bit of a foodie – I like to eat out and am a keen cook. I love going to listen to live music. Finally, I love dogs, especially my two hounds, Hector and Hugo.
I am the Board’s Medical Illustrator and have been with the Education Centre since 1995. My role includes Graphic Design (production of posters, leaflets, forms, presentations, etc.) and Audio-Visual support within the Education Centre.
I am also a part-time Aggression & Violence Reduction Instructor for the Board.
I’m a professional member of the Institute of Medical Illustrators (IMI) and a Registered Medical Illustrator with the Academy for Healthcare Science.
Outside of work my interests are quite wide and varied. I’m a keen photographer, favouring landscapes over other subjects and am a lifelong fan of Queen of the South FC.
