I graduated from the University of Dundee in 2001 with a BSc (Hons) in Applied Computing and joined the Medicines Monitoring Unit (MEMO), based in Ninewells Hospital.
In 2005 I moved to join the Health Informatics Centre (HIC) team as a Software Programmer working on many projects including the Wellcome Trust Case Control Collection for Type 2 Diabetes, Generation Scotland and Childsmile. From there I moved into the role of Application Development Manager responsible for data entry, patient contact and the day to day systems development within HIC Services.
