I am an epidemiologist specialising in the use of electronic health records, with a focus on establishing real-world evidence for the safety and effectiveness of medications.
I have received two prestigious awards from the
International Society for Pharmacoepidemiology in 2021 (Emerging Leader Award) and 2022 (Special COVID-19 Award for "demonstrable impact on public health related to the COVID-19 pandemic").
I was co-Editor of an ISPE-endorsed, free, online textbook, "
COVID-19 Real-World Evidence Primer," which aims to promote careful design and methodological approaches supporting causal inferences on drug safety and effectiveness that guide clinical and regulatory decisions.
I completed a PhD at LSHTM in 2018. Alongside a PhD, I was awarded a Postgraduate Diploma in Advanced Quantitative Research Methods with Distinction. I hold an MPH in Global Epidemiology from Emory University, and a BA in Sociology from The Ohio State University.
I am Programme Director for the long-standing pharmacoepidemiology and pharmacovigilance short courses at LSHTM:
In my spare time, you can find me performing around the UK in the London City Brass band.
