Welcome to Luke's Homepage

I am a senior lecturer in the School of Economics and Finance at Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand. I received PhD in Economics from Michigan State University in 2013. My research interests are focused on empirical microeconomics and applied econometrics. I work on policy relevant topics, including noncognitive personality traits, substance use and risky behaviours, intergenerational mobility, and education and financial aids.
