I work on the Modelling Health Outcome Trajectories of Ageing in Place Across Neighbourhood Profiles project led by Dr Richard Green. My research interests include health, the ageing population, geographical mobility, the labour force, policy-centric analyses, causal inference, and applied microeconometric methods. Before joining Surrey, I completed my PhD in Economics at the University of Dundee, focusing on the impact of higher education expansion on overeducation, labour market outcomes, and income distribution in the UK.
