About

I joined the University of Derby as a Lecturer in Economics in 2016. Before joining here, I was working as a Research Assistant at the University of Huddersfield. Currently, I am the Programme Leader for MSc International Business and Finance.

I am also the Bloomberg Lead in the Business School responsible for promoting the adoption of Bloomberg as a teaching and learning tool across the school by conducting training workshops for other staff members.

My research spans various sub-fields of Economics, such as International Economics, Environmental Economics and Cultural Economics. Some of my recent works involve topics relating to the growth effects of FDI, remittances and international trade, the role of environmental taxes and the impact of hydraulic fracturing on local communities.
