A Research Fellow at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM). Prior to starting my doctorate in Public Health and Policy at LSHTM, I completed a MSc in Health Psychology and a BSc in Psychology. While my academic background started in behavioural science, over my career I have expanded my discipline to incorporate principles from anthropology, public health, and health systems. This has enriched my analytical toolkit and enabled me to work on multi-disciplinary issues with greater veracity. 

Since the start of my career, I opted to specialise in qualitative research methodology. Given (at times) it’s poor reputation as an ‘anything goes’ approach I became motivated to ensure my research was conducted in line with best practice. I have since gone on to contribute to methodological reflexivity through authoring various book chapters, journal articles, teaching materials, and acting as a peer reviewer. I have extensive experience co-ordinating qualitative research in the field of healthcare improvement with patient and provider populations. Increasingly my work considers health (in)equality, co-production, and cross-sectoral knowledge transfer.
