I am a labour economist with research interests in the dynamics of employment behaviour over the life cycle, search and matching, health and ageing. My current research projects address the impact of involuntary job loss on the individual and household retirement decisions. I am also developing a new research agenda in the areas of executive compensation and inequality.

I joined the University of St Andrews as a lecturer (assistant professor) in 2014 after completing my PhD in Economics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and got tenure in 2018. I have previously worked at the Graduate School of Management, St Petersburg State University.

This year I am teaching EC5203 - Econometric Methods and Applications.
