Mrs Elizabeth Heatley

Biography

I live in Cardiff with my husband, two children and our beagle. Before coming to work at Cardiff University, I had quite a variety of jobs, from a research laboratory technician to newspaper advertising sales rep, and I had my own jewellery business for a while too. The job I held the longest was the 14 years I spent working for South Wales Police as a Crime Scene Investigator, which comes in handy when my kids are trying to get away with things – I remind them that I used to look for clues for a living. Makes them think twice!

I enjoy music, films, time with family and friends, and I do a bit of embroidery when I have time.
