AfRx Consulting

I believe better healthcare data and insights facilitate better health outcomes. I have spent the past eight years working and consulting on creating a more transparent environment for investing in and improving African healthcare. My personal goal is to improve access to medicines, with a focus on the role of the private sector, data and technological innovation in effecting change.

In consulting, I work predominantly on strategic and research focused projects to help private, public and NGO clients plan for success in Africa. Topics that I’ve worked on include market access, distribution strategy, digital technologies, non-communicable diseases, local manufacturing, market sizing, the role of the private sector and regulatory affairs. This usually involves constructing a clear project plan, conducting primary and secondary research, then synthesising this with the client’s input into a realistic and tangible set of recommendations.  The research component often involves elements of data analytic skills, both processing raw data and obtaining insights from developed datasets. In addition, I rely on the network of experts I’ve built up across a range of countries and healthcare topics for input.

Academically I hold a Bachelor of Science in Functional Genomics and Stem Cell Science from the University of Sheffield (1st, Hons).
