Prior to joining the European University Institute, I was a graduate student in the Department of Economic History at the London School of Economics, where I completed my doctoral dissertation, ‘Religion, competition and liability: The Dutch cooperative banking sector in crisis, 1919-1927’, under the supervision of Gerben Bakker and Max-Stephan Schulze.

I graduated from the University of Bristol with a BSc in Economics, and earned an MSc in Economic History from the London School of Economics. I have been a visiting student at Universitat Pompeu Fabra and Universiteit Utrecht. From August 2012, I will be a Lecturer in Business Economics at Queen's University Belfast and a Research Associate at Queen's University Centre for Economic History.

My academic interests lie primarily in the fields of business, economic and financial history, but my research also relates to the fields of applied industrial organisation, money and banking and the economics of religion.
