Profile

I joined ScHARR (HEDS) in November 2017 and work as part of the ScHARR Outcomes group on measuring and valuing health and quality of life. Currently, my research focuses on the development and evaluation of patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) and methodological research into how health and quality of life are best valued. This includes a focus on specific populations, including children and people with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions.

Prior to this, I worked as a Research Fellow in the Department of Economics at the University of Sheffield. I have also held applied roles in special education and the civil service.
