I qualified as a medical doctor from Makerere University (Uganda) and after clinical practice for 4 years, I transitioned to public health programming. I hold an MSc in Public Health for oEvelopment from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (2018/2019 and a DPhil in Population Health from the University of Oxford (2020 - 2023). My DPhil thesis examined abortion decision-making trajectories and their determinants in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
I have strong quantiative/epidemiological skills in environmental data analysis, complex survey data analysis using multicountry surveys (Demographics and Health Surveys), time-series analysis, psychometric analysis and systematic reviews and meta-analysis. I have knowledge and experience in Stata, R and Python.
