Welcome to my website!
Most of the content here will relate to my professional life, but you might sometimes see faith-based materials. I can’t help it! Compared to the high privilege of receiving grace from Jesus Christ, receiving the love of God and having the Spirit of God, everything here is insignificant.
I have studied and/or lived in Nigeria, Australia, and the UK. My first degree was a BPharm at University of Uyo in 2014. Thereafter, I did an MPH degree at University of Melbourne in 2021 through an Australia Awards scholarship. My thesis was a cost-effectiveness analysis, using Stata, alongside a trial of iron interventions for anaemia among Bangladeshi children. Currently, I doing Wellcome PhD in Public Health Economics and Decision Science at The University of Sheffield.
My work to date has been in public health, economic evaluation, and health decision science. Pre-MPH, I did some studies that inform health financing policies in Nigeria. More recently, I have done costing or cost-effectiveness analyses to inform interventions for infectious diseases in the Asia-Pacific region. Some of these include scabies in Fiji; COVID policy in Australia, COVID public health measures in Malaysia, COVID vaccine boosters in Pacific countries, molecular testing for malaria and arboviruses in Papua New Guinea, and pneumococcal conjugate vaccines in developing countries. Most of these were done with colleagues at MSPGH Health Economics Unit.
I am particularly keen on projects that assess multi-component interventions, use evaluations using real-world data, and those that involve creating user-friendly decision models. Most of my time in the next few years will be spent on analysis of cancer data or modelling cancer screening interventions using R. If you navigate to Papers section of this website, you will see data and code from projects where I did a substantial part of the primary analysis.
