I joined the Department of Economics in August 2021 with an educatin focus, specializing in Econometrics and undegraduate research. I have overseen the development and delivery of the department's Academic Writing Skills programme, in collaboration with Warwick Foundation Studies. I also co-lead on the undergraduate Data Team, which delivers detailed analyses of student performance and engagement on a regular basis to senior leadership within the department.

My research interests are in the area of Labour Economics and Applied Microeconometrics. I am particularly interested in the way institutions affect labour market outcomes; for example, collective bargaining, minimum wages, taxation, and family policy. I am also interested in other Applied Microeconomics fields, including Development Economics, Health Economics, and Economic History.

I completed my PhD at Vancouver School of Economics, University of British Columbia, Canada, specialising in Labour Economics. I also completed a 1-year taught Master’s degree in Economics at UBC and my undergraduate degree was in Economics & Economic History, with Honours in Economics, from the University of Cape Town, South Africa.

I am an accredited Fellow of Advanced HE (FHEA).
