- Profile
-
I joined the Health Economics and Decision Science (HEDS) Group as a Research Associate in June 2025, working on the BOWEL-STAR project.
Prior to this, I worked in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Sheffield as a researcher in the field of distributed multi-objective optimisation, particularly in complex systems, and worked with the Systems Science in Public Health and Health Economics Research (SIPHER) Consortium applying a distributed multi-objective framework to a problem in research for healthy public policy in Greater Manchester. I also did my PhD with SIPHER, with a thesis titled "Multi-objective Multi-disciplinary Design Optimisation: from Benchmark Development to Real-World Applications in Public Health”. Prior to this, my undergraduate master’s degree (MEng) was in control and systems engineering. I have also worked as a Research Associate at the University of York researching synchronisation of finite automata with applications in robotics.
