Research Fellow in Sustainable Food Economics | University of the West of England
I work with Sarah Bridle and Juan Pablo Cordero on a participatory model of the future of the UK food and land system. I seek to foster exchange of insights between agricultural economics and food systems science. I spend most of my time as a doctoral researcher at the Institute for New Economic Thinking at the University of Oxford. I research how agent-based macroeconomic models can be used to assess the distributional impact of climate mitigation policies. I came to my current roles from the UK government's Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. I worked in a range of policy and economics roles, most recently leading Defra's Net Zero Economics team. I regularly briefed Ministers and senior officials and I have represented the UK on working groups at the OECD, EU and WTO. Prior to working at Defra I worked at Prudential, Ecooo and Triodos Bank.
