I am a research fellow at Glasgow Caledonian University and a healthcare scientist at Public Health Scotland. My research interests relate to the epidemiology and prevention of blood borne viruses and the evaluation of policies related to this field. I provide analytical and statistical support for a range of blood borne viruses including hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV. I am a supporter for the widespread adoption of open-source statistical software within the public sector in Scotland, particularly for the use of R.
I also work as a freelancer on the Upwork platform and I am interested in taking on data science projects, ranging from the simple to the complex. If you have a project that you think I could help with, please get in touch.
