I am the Ulverscroft Senior Research Fellow in Ophthalmic Biostatistics in the Vision and Eyes Group of the Population, Policy and Practice Research and Teaching Department, UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health. My research focuses on the statistical analysis of health and educational data of children and young people with visual impairment and blindness. I have joined UCL in March 2025.

Previously, I was a research associate working with Dr Jessica Barrett on building statistical models for within-individual variability with applications in cystic fibrosis. In 2022, I earned a PhD in Statistics under the supervision of Dr Julia Brettschneider (Warwick), Prof Thomas Nichols (Oxford Big Data Institute) and Dr Shahin Tavakoli (University of Geneva). I was part of a joint CDT program between the University of Oxford and the University of Warwick called OxWaSP.

I am interested in the development of statistical methods for the analysis of complex data. In medicine, longitudinal and time-to-event data can help to evaluate disease risk and progression over time. In neuroimaging, I have used approaches from functional data analysis to derive indicators of brain health. In linguistics, statistical models for textual data can inform about semantic changes over time.
