I am an economist. My research interests are applied labour, health, and development economics, and survey methodolgy. I am particularly interested in:

• Determinants of social and human capital
• Causes and effects of ethnic diversity and segregation
• Microcredit
• Child labour
• Determinants and measurement of well-being
• Methods to reduce and correct for non response
• Impact evaluation
• Field and survey experiments

I am part of the Understanding Society team. I had been involved in a number of projects including: the sample design of the ethnic minority boost sample, the imputation of income data, the creation of the harmonised BHPS-Understanding Society dataset, and the inclusion of Understanding Society into the Cross National Equivalent File (CNEF).
