Victoria
University of Manchester BSc (Hons) Chemistry. Third year
specialisation: Physical Chemistry, together with options in
Mathematics and in Computer Science. My third year project,
with the late Prof. J.H. Baxendale, involved studying the interaction
of heavy metals with miscelles using conductometry, fluorescence
quenching studies and pulse radiolysis. The work was carried out in the
Paterson
Laboratories at the Christie
Hospital.
Victoria
University of Manchester MSc Chemistry; thesis title
'Molecular Beam Sources'. Used mass spectrometry and time-of-flight
velocity measurements to characterise the molecular species present and
energy distribution of novel molecular beam sources (for potential use
in reactive scattering experiments). A significant part of the work
involved computer simulation to predict reaction products within the
beam source from chemical
kinetic data.
My MSc supervisor was the late Prof. Roger Grice.
University
of Warwick PhD Chemistry; thesis title 'Analysis of Engine
Oils & Additives by Mass Spectrometry'. A variety of mass
spectrometry ionisation techniques were employed to analyse
engine oils and their additives, the aim of which was to find methods
of coping with the complex mixtures involved. The research included
extensive use of chemometrics techniques to extract individual spectra
from the mass spectra of mixtures.
PhD supervisor: Prof.
K.R. Jennings

I am a member of the Royal Society
Chemistry (RSC)
and the Chartered Quality Institute
(CQI).
After several years working in Hong Kong
for various commercial laboratories as Laboratory Technical
Manager
/ Quality Assurance Manager / IT Manager, I returned to the UK in 2002,
after a couple of jobs with Pfizer in Kent and Alcontrol Laboratories
in Chester, I joined Doug's research group in 2003. (When we were still
part of UMIST).
