Lecturer in Continuing Professional Development
I was born and grew up in Poland. In 2009, I completed an integrated MSc degree in Animal Science at the University of Agriculture in Krakow, Poland. I began training as a student nurse in 2012 at the University of Northumbria. Since qualifying in 2014 with a PgDip in Adult Nursing, I worked in gynecology in Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle upon Tyne for the next three years. I completed an MSc in Practice Development at the University of Northumbria in 2015.
I moved to research in 2017 working as a Clinical Research Nurse at NIHR Clinical Research Network North East and North Cumbria where I worked predominantly in the delivery of primary care research studies.
In 2021 I submitted my PhD on wellbeing of people with thyroid cancer. My qualitative study was funded by Butterfly Thyroid Cancer Trust, and hosted by Newcastle Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.
Teaching and supervision
I currently teach Research Methods module NUR208 to BSc (Hons) Nursing Top Up students and supervise BSc and MSc dissertation students.
