She has just completed and submitted a master's thesis, from data collected during a 7 month period at the International Research Livestock Institute (ILRI), Debre Zeit, Ethiopia. The title of her master's thesis is: "Multipurpose trees and shrubs as supplements to low quality roughage fed to ruminants in tropical countries". She has also studied at the University of Aberdeen and worked at the Rowett Research Institute (RRI), Scotland, where she analysed rumen samples in the laboratory.
