Research interests

I am a political and economic sociologist with a particular interest in public finance, including the politics of government budget-making, public debt, and fiscal austerity. In my current research, I study the public financial dimensions of local net zero efforts in the United Kingdom. This research asks how regional economic inequalities, uneven organisational capacities, and a competitive system of government grants shape the decarbonisation process across the UK.

Teaching interests

I teach or have taught topics in political sociology, research methods, and social statistics.
