I am a Labor and Applied Micro-Economist with research interests in education and health inequalities, social mobility, immigrant and refugee integration, and family spillovers of policy interventions. My research aims to inform relevant policy policies and interventions in order to improve the well-being of the most vulnerable groups within society and to reduce social inequalities. 

I received my PhD in Economics from the University of York in 2021 and my Master’s Degree in Economics from Victoria University of Wellington in 2015. I am also a Research Affiliate at the EfD-Vietnam and the CeFH. Before joining the INVEST Centre in August 2024, I worked as a 3-year Postdoctoral Fellow at the CeFH, a Norwegian Centre of Excellence at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health, and before that a Lecturer in Economics at the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City. I was awarded the British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship in 2024.
