My background is in libraries, however upon completing a Masters degree in Museum Studies I joined the Collections Trust working on a number of projects, which included developing the Find a Library service and the JISC funded Contextual Wrappers 2 project. I am now delighted to take up the position of European Projects Officer, and I look forward to representing the Collections Trust to an international audience. I am passionate about unlocking the potential of collections and opening them up to a wider audience.

My role as European Projects Officer is to provide support to the European Commission funded projects that we run, providing project coordination, communication, administration and reporting to the project stakeholders, and acting as a representative of the organisation to an international audience.

I spend my spare time visiting museums and exhibitions, reading, traveling, vegetarian cooking and researching my family history.
