My first degree was in Chemistry from the University of Nottingham. Following this, I studied for a PhD in Organic Chemistry at Trent Polytechnic. I worked as a Postdoctoral Scientist at the University of Warwick where I investigated the biogenesis of riboflavin.
I was then appointed to a postdoctoral position at the Paterson Institute, Christie Hospital, Manchester where I worked on developing anticancer agents. I was appointed as a Lecturer in Chemistry at the University of Salford in 2001, and Senior Lecturer in 2008
