Career Overview

I have studied Animal Bioengineering at the University of Warmia and Mazury in Poland which resulted in MSc Eng in Animal Breeding and Utilisation. This was later followed with a PhD study at the same university where I focused on improving the reproductive performance of sheep and the meat quality of lambs.


Since then, I have been teaching at universities in the UK before joining Hartpury in 2022. Whilst at these universities, I have supervised numerous undergraduate and postgraduate students to completion.
