Hi!! I'm a second-year PhD student at King's College London. My current research concerns the interaction between a surgeon and a robot during robotic-assisted surgery and the security behind it. So far, I've been looking into this area from different perspectives: implications of trust, user trust; disruptions to the process; effects of these interruptions; teamwork and collaboration in RAS and how this influences the patient outcome, anticipation from team members; human emotions. I love teaching, I have been a teaching assistant at the university for 3 years now. I ran small and large group tutorials. This has been a great opportunity for me to strengthen my understanding of the modules I taught, as I also marked students' assignments. Time management and attention to detail were two vital skills I developed through this role. This experience has proven to me that different people interpret the same ideas with new perspectives, and has made me aware of the various methods available to approach problems. In my spare time, I play sports, travel and paint. I have been skiing since I was 4 years old and at university, I joined the rugby and tennis teams. I am a very competitive person. I love travelling, my top countries so far are France, Germany and Austria. My favourite museums are art galleries and I like to collect fridge magnets :)).

A conscientious and dedicated student, currently in my final year at University. I have always loved learning, and want to share this with others. Whilst at Uni, I take BSL classes, as I believe communication, verbal and non-verbal, is very important. In my free-time, I love to read and play games with friends, board or video! I also enjoy being both active and creative, partaking in Netball and Pottery society at uni.
