I am a sociologist with a PhD from Goldsmiths, University of London. I joined LSHTM in 2020 to work in the Policy Innovation and Evaluation Research Unit (PIRU) on the Evaluation of the Integrated Care and Support Pioneers in England (2015-2020) and the Evaluation of the implementation of the UK Antimicrobial Resistance National Action Plan. Before, I was based at the Institute for Infection and Immunity at St George's, University of London, where I assisted in research on novel diagnostics for sexually transmitted infections.

I also hold an MRes in Sociology and an MA in Gender and Culture, both from Goldsmiths, University of London.
