I am a Research and Policy Advisor at the Bank of England, working in the Bank's Monetary Policy Strategy Division. Previously, I have worked in the Bank's International and Financial Stability Strategy and Risk Directorates. I am also a member of the Centre for Macroeconomics.

I have recently completed a chapter on International macroeconomics with Giancarlo Corsetti and Luca Dedola for Macroeconomics, a comprehensive textbook for first-year Ph.D. courses in macroeconomics.

I completed my Ph.D. in Economics at the University of Cambridge.
