My research focuses on health economics, particularly economic evaluations in orthopaedics and trauma care, contributing to evidence that informs healthcare policy, clinical guidelines, and resource allocation.

I currently co-lead the validation of economic evaluations (validiTEE) project, which is recruiting participants to develop best-practice standards for validation in health economic studies. I also collaborate with the Nuffield Department of Orthopaedics, Rheumatology and Musculoskeletal Sciences (NDORMS) on various trial-based economic evaluations.

Alongside my research, I serve on the Research Methods team in The Bone & Joint Journal Editorial Board and the committees of the Medical Sciences Internal Fund: Pump Priming and the International Health Economics Association (IHEA) Student Paper Prize.

My academic background includes a BEng in Biomedical Engineering and a PhD in Public Health specialising in Health Economics at the National University of Singapore. Before my PhD, I worked as a hospital executive and research coordinator at the Singapore General Hospital, where I gained experience in hospital operation and administration, and worked closely with patients and their caregivers in research studies.
