I am a qualitative social scientist, with a background in medical anthropology. I have been working in the field of global health for over 15 years.

For the last six years or so, I have been based at the Amsterdam Institute for Global Health and Development, having previously gained my PhD in applied medical anthropology from the University of Amsterdam in 2014. Before moving to Amsterdam, I worked for five years at the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal). Prior to that, I studied for a master's degree in anthropology from University College London and a bachelor's in human sciences from Oxford University.

I have led qualitative health-related research across diverse settings in Africa and Asia. Much of my work - including my PhD - has focused on the social dimensions of infectious diseases, their treatment and prevention. Over the last few years, I have begun to collaborate in interdisciplinary research examining the provision of critical care in low- and middle-income countries (as part of the Critical Care Asia programme).

I enjoy working in diverse interdisciplinary teams, collaborating with clinicians, epidemiologists, public health specialists, health economists etc. from the global north and south. My research has focused on generating policy-relevant insights and I aim to communicate results to a broad audience, including practitioners, policymakers and other stakeholders.
