Overview
I'm an empirical economist with a specialization in the Economics of Crime.
I'm deeply interested in efficient strategies for addressing crimes and ensuring justice. My PhD research suggests a framework for assessing the implications of closing criminal courts, touching on aspects such as court congestion, prosecutorial discretion, and crime deterrence.
I'm an Associate Fellow of the HEA and hold a membership of the Royal Economic Society and British Society of Criminology.
