Background and experience

Before becoming a database specialist Alex was a Senior Research Assistant with the Field Epidemiology team.

Whilst completing his Master’s degree in Applied Sport and Exercise Science at Bangor University, he secured a position as a health advisor with Bupa, a role which involved providing health assessments, educating clients and, more often than not, cutting through the latest media fad diet.
