I am a Senior Lecturer in Statistics in the School of Mathematical Sciences.
I obtained a BA in Mathematics (1971) at Churchill College Cambridge and a Diploma in Statistics at the University of Edinburgh. After a couple of years working as a Statistician in the Civil Service I studied for a PhD at the University of Southampton under Prof T.M.F.(Fred) Smith. My thesis was entitled Exchangeability and the Foundations of Survey Sampling (1978). I lectured on temporary appointments at the University of Nottingham and City University London and in 1980 went to Goldsmiths College London as a lecturer in Statistics. I was Head of Department from 1988 to 1990. I moved to Queen Mary in September 2004.

Research :

I am a statistician interested in survey sampling inference from finite populations. I have worked on the foundations, exchangeability, ignorability, unequal probability sampling methods, Edgeworth expansions and sample size determination and most recently on exact linear estimation.

Teaching :

MTH5119 Sampling, Surveys and Simulation
MTH6136 Statistical Theory
MTH734U Topics in Probability and Stochastic Processes

Other Activities :

Personal :

My interests outside Statistics are Bridge and Walking
