I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in the Economics Department at the University of Southampton. My core research focus is on the economics of crime. I am also interested in other areas of applied micro — I currently have work in the areas of both family and environmental economics. Here is my CV and here is my office hour booking link for ECON6004 students.
