I am currently Senior Lecturer of Economics at the University of Stirling. I am also an IZA Research Fellow.
My research mainly focuses on Macroeconomics and Labour Economics, with particular interests in business cycles, wage determination, and inequality issues. I also do stuff in Sports Economics and Prediction Markets. I am affiliated with the ESRC/UKRI Wage and Employment Dynamics project. You can listen to me rambling on about sports economics and other things on a 2024 episode of the Beverage Report Podcast (LSE Department of Economics) Some New Stuff in Spring/Summer 2025:
