I am an economist with research interests in social inequalities and policy evaluation. My work focuses on applied microeconomics, with a particular emphasis on labour and health economics. A key aim of my research is to inform policy interventions that enhance the well-being of vulnerable groups and promote social mobility. My research has been published in the Journal of Development Economics, the Journal of Health Economics, and Labour Economics, among other peer-reviewed journals.

I earned my PhD in economics from the University of York, where I was supervised by Professor Thomas Cornelissen and Professor Emma Tominey, and a master’s degree in economics from Victoria University of Wellington. I am also a research fellow at the Economy and Environment Partnership for Southeast Asia (EEPSEA) at the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH), and a research affiliate at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health (NIPH) and the INVEST Research Flagship Centre at the University of Turku. Previously, I worked as a senior researcher at the INVEST Centre, a postdoctoral fellow at NIPH, and a lecturer in economics at UEH.
