I am a Research Fellow and doctoral student in the Innovative Methods and Metrics for Agriculture and Nutrition Actions (IMMANA) programme, within the Nutrition Group at LSHTM.
My doctoral research project explores the effect of greenhouse gas emissions, air pollutants and chemicals released across plastics life cycles on global human health, over time and under different policy scenarios.
I have worked on large-scale syntheses of evidence of food system plastics effects on the environment, food security and human health, and also on evidence linking food systems and nutrition to global mental health.
I completed my Master's degree in Nutrition for Global Health at LSHTM in 2018.
