I am a Senior Lecturer in Economics and a member of the Political Economy Research Group (PERG). I have been teaching at Kingston since 2015, and previously worked as Teaching Fellow at SOAS, University of London.
My research interests are currently causes and consequences of pension fund behaviour in different spaces and macroeconomic contexts; social policy and inequality; and the philosophy of economics. My work is framed using theories and methods drawn from international political economy, critical theories of finance and heterodox economics. I have worked professionally as a lobbyist for pension reform in the UK, and I served for six years as a trustee on the Local Government Pension Fund (LGPF), the largest Defined Benefit scheme in the UK. I hold a Certificate in Retirement Income Provision. I have worked across a broad spectrum of social policy areas in both influencing and decision-making roles.
