I qualified from the University of Leeds in 1999. In my final year at Leeds I represented the University at the British Dental Association/Dentsply Student Clinician Program competition and went on to represent the UK at the International Conference of the American Dental Association held in Hawaii. I have gone on to produce a number of research papers which have been published in the British Dental Journal. In 2005 I gained by examination membership of the Faculty of General Dental Practice (UK) of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
