PhD in Economics
Cardiff Buiness School, Cardiff University
I completed my PhD in Economics at Cardiff Business School, funded by the ESRC Wales DTP in collaboration with the Office for National Statistics (ONS). I am also a Research Assistant for The Productivity Institute Wales Forum.
I work extensively with large administrative microdata through the ONS Secure Research Service, including the Annual Respondents Database X (ARDx), Business Enterprise Research and Development (BERD) survey, the Annual Business Survey (ABS), the UK Innovation Survey (UKIS), and the Management and Expectations Survey (MES).
Before my PhD, I completed an MRes in Advanced Economics and two MSc degrees at Cardiff University, following a Bachelor’s degree in Finance. I also have teaching experience across microeconomics, behavioural economics, and quantitative methods.
My research interests lie in applied microeconomics, particularly firm-level productivity, innovation and management. Now, I'm expanding my research to development and labour economics.
