I completed my PhD at the Wellcome-Wolfson Institute for Experimental Medicine, Queen’s University Belfast, where I investigated Klebsiella pneumoniae-induced vascular dysfunction under the supervision of Prof Jose Bengoechea and Prof Tim Curtis. I'm now a postdoctoral researcher in the Odendall group, studying how Salmonella manipulates host immune signalling to influence inflammation and infection outcomes.

My research focuses on the molecular mechanisms Salmonella uses to disrupt innate immune pathways, with a particular interest in calcium and interferon signalling. Broadly, I’m interested in how host–pathogen interactions shape immune responses and disease progression.
