British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow

Welcome to my website! I am an applied microeconomist working on innovation, energy and the environment.  I hold a PhD in Environmental Economics from the University of Oxford (Nov 2022) and my postdoctoral work is supported by the British Academy Fellowship. In 2023, I received the CESifo Distinguished Research Affiliate Award (Energy & Environment) for my research on long-term contracts to bring early-stage clean technologies to market. I was also invited to be a referee for UChicago's market shaping accelerator led by Michael Kramer, where I refereed first stage proposals for advanced market commitments to bring clean technologies to market. 

Prior to academia, I worked as a practising environmental and energy economist for several years, advising on carbon pricing, renewable energy policy, green industrial policy and natural resource management (see here).
