BIO

I am an epidemiologist based within the MRC International Statistics and Epidemiology Group at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, with a particular interest in understanding the community-level determinants of health and supporting the design and evaluation of social interventions to improve population health. My particular interests are in HIV, sexual and reproductive health, and mental health.

I am co-lead for the Quantifying Impact theme in LSHTM's Centre for Evaluation. I am also a member of the Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion Committee for the Faculty of Epidemiology and Population Health.
