Hello! I am an urban planner by training, and presently a faculty member in the Department of Social Policy and Intervention at the University of Oxford. I conduct interdisciplinary research on the relationships between place and health, especially health disparities, and the role that place-based policies can improve health equity. My latest work focuses on relationships between individuals' neighborhood perceptions and health disparities, as well as the lasting legacies of historical events or policies. I am also engaged with using new technologies, like mobile apps and wearable sensors, and community-engaged methods in my research.
