After graduating from Bangor, I worked as a Teaching Fellow in Intellectual Property (IP) Law at Durham Law School and Warwick Law School. I was nominated for the Warwick Awards for Teaching Excellence. I owed a great debt to my former PhD supervisor, who encouraged me to apply for a research scholarship during my PhD and who wholeheartedly supported me in my job hunting.
