MY QUALIFICATIONS

PGDip Veterinary Physiotherapy

University of Nottingham
School of Veterinary Medicine

PGCert Clinical Animal Behaviour

University of Edinburgh

This level 6 clinical training equipped me with the theory & practical skills required for a veterinary physiotherapist. Core components included electrotherapies, anatomy & physiology, exercise programming, advanced manual skills, clinical reasoning & case management. I am currently completing my level 7 thesis.

This qualification taught an evidence-based approach to explore the potential motivations, management and treatment options for abnormal and/or problem behaviours commonly expressed by companion animal species, drawing on psychology, ethology, neurobiology pharmacology and veterinary science.

BSc (Hons) Health & Human Sciences

University of
Durham

My first degree gave me a grounding in evolutionary biology, ecology, and general health sciences. I specialised in animal-related topics such as zoonotic diseases, human-animal relations (anthrozooology) and conservation biology. My final year took me to South Africa to study people & predators and my dissertation fieldwork was undertaken in Manila, the Philippines with people and local stray animals.
