Teaching

At WEO I teach on a range of courses, including Human Resource Management, organisational behaviour and research methods, specialising in skill development and utilisation, transitions to employment, graduate employment, labour markets, research methodology and statistical analysis.

Previously, I have taught introductory mathematical methods and quantitative economics at St Anne’s College, University of Oxford, public policy economics, inequality and labour markets, and research methods for the Department for Continuing Education, University of Oxford, and have supervised undergraduate students’ dissertations from the department of Economics, University of Warwick.

Research Interests

My main research interests are in graduate transitions to employment, skill utilisation and job upgrading, and mixed methods research approaches. I am especially interested in the inequalities in graduate transitions to employment, and in the role of skill development and skill utilisation in relation to graduate employment.

At present, I am working on a comparative research project on the role of work placements in graduate transitions to employment in the UK and Italy, taking into account national education and labour market contexts. My colleagues and I are exploring similarities and differences in the pathways to employment, who benefits and who is marginalised, and furthering the development of an international research network in this area.

Previously, I worked on a variety of projects related to employment and the labour market while at the Warwick Institute for Employment Research, including adults’ participation in training, wider benefits of higher education and diversity in the British screen industries. During my time at Wales Public Services 2025, I worked on public service financing, focusing on healthcare spend in Wales.

Applied for and awarded £1075 to visit research partner at Gran Sasso Science Institute (GSSI), L'Aquila, Italy, in order to (1) broaden our research network (including to Strathclyde partner universities), (2) discuss opportunities for further collaborative activity, e.g. application to an EU funded project, joint supervision of PhD students, and (3) develop a strategic direction for our research by discussing future joint research plans, given the synergies between Strathclyde WEO expertise in Labour markets, skills & employability, and in Organising for social & digital innovation and the GSSI expertise in human capital, skills and the labour market.
