About me

I am currently finishing my PhD while working as a Senior Research Fellow and Data Scientist at the UCL Institute of Child Health. As a part of my doctoral research, I am exploring current practices and challenges of research data sharing and reuse.
Prior to this, I worked as a Research Data Librarian at the University of Bath and was a Faculty/ Fellow at the North Carolina State University Libraries. I graduated from School of Information Sciences at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a master's degree in Library and Information Science, specializing in Socio-technical Data Analytics and Data Curation, and received my bachelor's degree in Information Science at the University of Tsukuba in Japan. I love working with data and learning new techniques everyday!
