My research focusses on the area of simulation within Operational Research, particularly in using simulation to make decisions. This can be through simulation optimisation, multi-fidelity modelling or in evaluating simulation-based decisions.

My PhD research with STOR-i was in using simulation to make operational decisions in airline disruption management, aiming to minimise the impact of disruptive events. This research primarily focussed on using multiple modelling approaches to guide simulation optimisation techniques. My supervisors were Stephan Onggo at the University of Southampton, Dave Worthington at Lancaster University, Barry L. Nelson at Northwestern University, and Richard Standing at Rolls Royce.
