I am the clinical lead for heart failure, cardiomyopathies, and heart failure devices (biventricular pacemakers and defibrillators) at the University Hospital of Wales.

I've implanted over 1,000 heart failure devices and am a European Society of Cardiology proctor for these procedures. I lead an active research group and serve as the UK Chief investigator of several International clinical trials. I was also appointed as a National Institute of Social Care and Health Research (NISCHR) fellow in 2011.

I have published more than 50 high impact medical papers and contributed to several chapters in medical textbooks.

I'm currently approved by the Football Association for cardiac screening of elite athletes.
