Consultant Neurologist and co-head of the First Seizure Clinic at The Alfred since January 2020. I am also an Early Career Research Fellow at the School of Translational Medicine, Monash University. I completed my PhD on Optimisation of First Seizure and Epilepsy Management in May 2021. My research skills are in epidemiology, public health, and outcomes research. I designed and am currently leading multicentre prospective clinical trials to improve the ways in which we deliver healthcare.
