I am an ST7 General and Colorectal Surgery Registrar in the Peninsula Deanery of South West England. Since graduating from Imperial College in 2011, I have developed subspecialty interests in hernia repair, abdominal wall reconstruction and pelvic exenteration. I am currently OOP completing a MD as part of the NIHR funded CIPHER Study. My most recent committee positions as ASiT Vice President, Lead Surgical Trainee for HESW and SWETA Surgical Rep have given me insight into how surgical training is transforming which will help me deliver resources and guidance for our trainees.
