BIO

My basic training is as a pharmacist. I first came to the LSHTM in 2009 to study for an MSc in Medical Statistics. At the end of my studies in 2010 I went back to Nairobi to continue my research work in child health. I returned to the School in 2011 to study for a PhD in Medical Statistics. After completing my PhD I joined the Department of Medical Statistics in 2014 initially as a research fellow and deputy Course Director for the MSc Clinical Trials programme.
