About Me

I am a PhD Researcher at the University of Sheffield, funded by the Wellcome Trust. I am in the 3rd year of the Public Health Economics and Decision Sciences program , and a member of the Sheffield Addictions Research Group (SARG) .

My interdisciplinary research bridges complex systems science, social simulation, social network analysis, and health economics. I have a background in Systems and Control Engineering and I apply simulation modelling and systems science to public health policy questions in non-communicable diseases.

Research Interests

  • Agent-Based Modelling (ABM)
  • Social Network Analysis (SNA)
  • Model Calibration & Optimisation
  • Health Economics & Policy Evaluation
  • Tobacco Control & Substance Use

Outside of my academic work, I am a keen musician. I play bass guitar in the Sheffield based 12-piece jazz & soul collective Mappin Street Collective .
