Biography
I am a public health economist and postdoctoral researcher in the Health Behaviours Team. I am also a Wellcome Trust Research Fellow working with the Health Economics and Policy Evaluation Group. My work spans health economic modelling and policy evaluation across projects in both teams.
I completed my PhD in Public Health, Economics and Decision Sciences at the University of Sheffield. My doctoral research examined the methodological challenges involved in adapting validated health economic microsimulation models for use in low- and middle-income settings, using hypertension prevention interventions in Ghana as a case study.
I also hold a Master of Public Health from Imperial College London. Prior to this, I completed an integrated Master’s degree in Biomedical Sciences and Mathematics and Statistics as part of my Natural Sciences degree at University College London.
