*Jan-Dec 2022
My clinical background is in hospital pharmacy practice — knowledge that I now use in a publishing environment. Most of my publishing career has focused on the BNF and BNF for Children, working with a passionate and knowledgeable team to transition to enhanced digital delivery of our content while continuing to provide authoritative and trusted guidance to support best clinical practice. I now use that experience to work across all Pharmaceutical Press publications.
As a pharmacist with experience in hospital practice and medicines information, I appreciate how readers use our content and why they value it so highly. After sharpening my editorial skills on Martindale: The Complete Drug Reference, it’s incredibly fulfilling to work with a wonderful team on publications that support patient care every day.
With a background in hospital pharmacy, I’m passionate about utilising digital health solutions to support clinical workflows and optimise patient care. I’m proud to work with an incredible team who develop novel and exciting content ranging from point-of-care tools to brand new publications and beyond.
Having joined the editorial team in 1996, I have worked as a writer and editor on both Martindale: The Complete Drug Reference and BNF publications. More recently, I have overseen the team’s training and development. It is a pleasure to part of a team of motivated colleagues, producing well-respected products.
Having extensive publishing experience, I am driven by my determination to deliver continuous improvement through process innovation. My starting premise when seeking to improve workflows is ‘there must be an easier way,’ a mindset that enables me and my team to find and implement focused and effective solutions.
My clinical pharmacist background enables me to design new content sets and point-of-care tools which support health professionals in their clinical decision making.
My background is in both hospital and community pharmacy. I work across the BNF and Projects teams exploring new product development with a focus on digital health, medicines optimisation, and patient safety.
I am a clinical pharmacist with more than 20 years’ experience in a variety of settings. I am passionate about creating and delivering high-quality, evidence-based drug information that helps health professionals to easily make decisions and allows them to improve patient care.

After a varied background in clinical pharmacy practice, I moved into publishing where I enjoy the challenge of presenting complex information clearly and concisely to create practical resources to support clinicians. I love to support our team of writers in this respect, and help them to develop their editorial skills.
Delivering improvements is exciting and something that I find extremely rewarding. Here at Pharmaceutical Press, I lead a team and drive content improvement projects across the British National Formulary and Martindale: The Complete Drug Reference publications.
I worked as a clinical pharmacist in various hospital settings, then in medicines management in a Primary Care Trust, before joining the BNF Editorial team in 2009. I have been fortunate to have worked in a variety of roles, all within BNF Publications. My current role focuses on BNF governance. This involves overseeing the team’s work on complex content updates, liaising with the BNF governance committees, and engaging with external stakeholders, all of which contribute to the creation of trusted clinical content to support health professionals in their clinical practice and promote the safe use of medicines.
Driving teams to achieve goals whilst mentoring and nurturing talent is something that I love to do each day; being able to deploy these skills for publications which are used in patient care is incredibly fulfilling.
After completing my PhD in endocrinology, I worked in drug development for ten years, followed by spells in medical writing and the NHS. Since joining the BNF in 2005 it has been my pleasure to support amazing people, creating the most highly respected resources in their fields.
I’m immensely proud to work with world-renowned experts and highly skilled editorial teams to shape the delivery of content in the safe and effective use of drugs.
