I joined LSHTM in 2005, as a statistician at the Mwanza Intervention Trials Unit (MITU) in Tanzania. I am currently based at the Africa Health Research Institute (AHRI) in rural KwaZulu Natal, South Africa, as the head of the Data Science Unit.   I continue to collaborate with colleagues in Tanzania on HPV research.

Before joining LSHTM, I spent seven years as a statistician in the pharmaceutical industry. I have an MSc in Epidemiology and an MSc in Statistics, and completed my PhD at LSHTM in 2025. My first degree is in Geology, and before studying epidemiology, I worked as a geophysicist.
