I am Deputy Director at the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) in London.  

I have worked across a wide range of issues in public policy including ageing; pensions; public sector pay and spending; income and wealth inequalities; housing; and labour markets.  Most (but not all) of my recent focuses on understanding economic activity in later life, pensions, saving for retirement, their interaction with public policy, and the consequences of demographic change and an ageing population.

I a co- Principal Investigator of the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing, I lead the IFS Deaton Review country studies project - a study of inequalities in Europe and North America, and I am one of the Directors of the IFS Pensions Review, a review of the future of financial security in retirement. 

I received my PhD from the Department of Economics, University College London in 2020.
