Her clinical practice includes work at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in London, where she is involved in the Developmental Vision Clinics, Neurodisability Service and Neurodevelopmental Assessment Service. Through these services, she assesses and supports children presenting with complex developmental needs. 

With experience practicing at Moorfields Eye Hospital, Dr supported the Medical Retina and Paediatric Cataract clinics, contributing her developmental paediatric expertise to the assessment and care of young patients with visual impairments. Her clinical interests therefore encompass the relationship between childhood development, neurodisability and visual function, particularly the developmental needs of preschool children with low vision.
