About
I am an economist with a PhD in Economics from Queen Mary University of London. My research sits broadly within family economics, behavioural economics, socioeconomic and policy analysis, game theory and applied microeconomic theory. I study how households, families, organisations and social groups respond to incentives, constraints, social influence, reference groups and strategic economic environments.
My main research examines how economic decisions are formed in social settings, especially within households, families, groups and organisations. I am interested in how behaviour is shaped by family interactions, practical constraints, information, feasibility, social expectations and what becomes salient or reinforced through the behaviour of others. In this context, limited attention appears as one important economic friction: people and groups often respond not to every possible option, but to what becomes visible, feasible, socially supported or institutionally available.
I also work in game theory and strategic economic environments, studying how individual decisions interact and how coordination problems can generate wider patterns in markets, organisations, networks and society. My strong quantitative background comes from an MSc and BSc in Applied Mathematics, with training in game theory, convex optimisation, linear programming, integer programming and numerical analysis. Alongside my research, I have taught economics at Queen Mary University of London and the London School of Economics, including work with early-career economists on applied economic reasoning, policy analysis and professional communication.
Alongside my research, I have extensive teaching experience at Queen Mary University of London and the London School of Economics. In my current role as a Teaching Associate, I train employed early-career economists on the Level 7 Senior Professional Economist Apprenticeship, teaching applied microeconomics, welfare analysis and behavioural economics for real-world policy problems. I also supervise policy-focused research projects from research question to final presentation, helping economists evaluate assumptions, methods and the credibility of economic conclusions, while developing their analytical reasoning, policy evaluation and professional communication skills.
