General Experience

I have been indexing full-time for 19 years and have compiled over 550 indexes. I specialize in the area of professional medicine and the biological sciences. Before taking up indexing I worked as a biochemist in the healthcare industry (specifically immunodiagnostics) where I gained considerable experience in project management – I know how important it is to meet deadlines. I have a good working knowledge of molecular biology. My degree is in Natural (Biological) Sciences from Cambridge University.

Personal interests include British/European history and the history of science. I am available all year round and am equally happy to take on both short and long commissions.
