Personal profile
Personal Statement
I started at Strathclyde as an undergraduate student in 2014 with a BSc (Hons) in Mathematics & Statistics. Following that, I then started my PhD at the University of Glasgow. My PhD explored trends and inequalities in dental caries and obesity in Primary 1 children in Scotland and explored the role of the Childsmile programming in reaching children with co-existing dental caries and obesity.
In January 2022, I began my teaching career at Strathclyde as a Teaching Assistant before being promoted to Teaching Associate in August 2022. I am the director of the Septembers of the Online MScs in Applied Statistics.
As a Teaching Associate, I mainly teach statisticss modules in Year 1 (Statistics and Data Presentation), 2 (Probability and Statistical Inference), 4 (Experimental Design), and 5 (Data Dashboards with RShiny; Data Analytics in R).
