Jump to: Affiliations Teaching Research Publications

I am a research fellow in the Policy and Innovation Research Unity (PIRU).  I joined the School in 2019 after completing my PhD in mental health services research at Imperial College London, where I also contributed to randomised controlled trials of complex psychological interventions for adults and children with a range of mental health conditions. Prior to this, I was involved in various health-related primary care informatics projects at St George’s University of London.
