Welcome to my website. I am a Reader (Associate Professor) in Data Analytics at Bayes Business School (formerly Cass). I am Course Director of the BSc Business Analytics degree programme. I previously held the position of Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) in Economics at King's Business School, King's College London. I am also a Research Associate of the Economic Statistics Centre of Excellence (ESCoE).
I am currently part of a team leading the quantitative analysis for a major NHS England project to evaluate the effectiveness of Virtual Wards (see projects).
My current research focusses on econometrics, forecasting and nowcasting, forecast evaluation, functional data, quantile regression and big data methods. The main applications of my work are to the prediction of macroeconomic and financial variables, and topics in health, energy and environmental economics.
My teaching also focusses on econometrics and data analytics. I try to promote engagement in quantitative subjects through a blended learning approach using technological innovations such as flipped videos for mathematical topics with interactive formative quizzes. Please see my teaching page for details of my teaching award nominations and shortlistings.
