🌍 Coming from Myanmar, I’ve seen how limited resources demand tough choices. My work is driven by a passion for equity—using health economics to support policies that invest wisely in children’s mental health & well-being.

Research is not always linear! Missing data, small samples, and tricky assumptions make estimating long-term societal costs hard. I’m learning to tackle this with robust methods like sensitivity analysis. It is all part of the PhD ride.

Prevention costs money—but not preventing might cost more. I’m building a model to estimate how early school-based mental health interventions can improve school performance & future earnings.

In one of my studies, we’re evaluating dog-assisted support program for students with chronic absenteeism. Dogs visit schools weekly to support children emotionally—can this reduce absenteeism and be cost-effective for schools? We're finding out!

Now, I’m a PhD student studying the health and economic impacts of mental health problems and school-based interventions for children. My research includes cost-of-illness studies and economic evaluations of programs in Swedish schools.

After graduating, I worked as a research assistant at Uppsala Health Economics (UHE), Uppsala University. My work focused on child and women's health, where I contributed to systematic reviews and health economic analyses using both literature and data-driven approaches.
