I am a Research Software Engineer working in the Epiverse-TRACE initiative (within CMMID). My work primarily involves developing R packages to enable epidemiologists to conduct reliable and robust analysis on disease outbreak data.
My background is in evolutionary biology and from 2019-2023 I did my PhD at the University of Groningen.
