I am an Associate Professor at Lancaster University Management School.
Before joining Lancaster I worked at Nottingham University as an Assistant Professor.

Previously, I was at Cambridge University where I completed Mathematical Tripos Part III and then
a PhD in Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics in 2018, supervised by Prof. Oliver Linton.
My primary research interests lie on developing time series methods for financial applications.

** This March I am co-orgnising a financial econometrics conference in honour of Professor Stephen Taylor, conference link.

** In June 2022 I organised a workshop on Volatility, Jumps and Bursts.
