I’m an economist with expertise in the energy transition, competition & regulation, and carbon pricing.
On the academic side, I’m a fellow in economics at Cambridge University and an honorary fellow in finance at Imperial College Business School. I’ve served on a number of advisory boards including at Ofgem and the Competition & Markets Authority.
My research has been published in leading peer-reviewed journals and featured in major news media including The Economist and the Financial Times.
On the business side, I’m chief economist and co-founder at Vallorii—bringing new data-driven analytics to infrastructure investment, and senior advisor at SparkChange—helping asset managers and banks navigate carbon pricing.
Previously, I advised companies, financial institutions and governments on energy transition strategy and carbon markets at McKinsey & Company, and helped build Vivid Economics and Planetrics.
