Biography

I joined the Eating Disorders Research Group in 2021 as a Research Worker for the First Episode Rapid Early Intervention for Eating Disorders (FREED). The FREED project is an early intervention service for young people who have developed an eating disorder within the last three years, and is being rolled out to a growing number of eating disorder services across England.


Prior to joining the Eating Disorders Research Group, I completed my MSc in Psychiatric Research at the IoPPN, where I also volunteered as a Research Assistant for a project investigating digital health tools. Since 2017, I have also been volunteering as an Ambassador for the charity Beat.
