Staff Profile
I have been a lecturer in statistics in the School of Mathematics, Statistics and Physics at Newcastle University since 2018.
I am completing my PhD studies on Bayesian Methodology for Road Safety Analysis, supervised by Dr Lee Fawcett (School of Mathematics, Statistics and Physics) and Neil Thorpe (School of Engineering).
I completed my MMathStat studies at newcastle in 2014, having completed a research project in extreme value theory supervised by Dr David Walshaw.
