I study how education policy can mitigate social inequalities, and share insights from my research with policymakers and practitioners. 

Topics I study include college access, non-financial barriers to education, and network effects.  I combine different methods, from evaluating real-world policies through randomised trials, to using economic modelling to simulate the impacts of policies that do not yet exist.

At UCL, I won the 2019 Provost's Education Award (awarded to 10 out of around 8,000 faculty) for outstanding contributions to education. Read my blog posts here, here, and here
