Economist and data analyst · Development, monetary and labour economics
I study how monetary policy reaches the real economy in developing countries, and what growth does to the people at the bottom of the income distribution. I turn that research habit into applied analysis with SQL, Python, R and Power BI.
My sole-authored work is empirical and policy-facing, with a regional focus on Sub-Saharan Africa and South America.
How interest-rate decisions pass through to output and manufacturing productivity in Sub-Saharan African economies.
Whether economic growth narrows or widens income gaps, tested on a panel of South American countries.
Meta-analytic reviews of how gender and ethnic diversity relate to employee performance in multinational firms in Nigeria.
Codes follow the Journal of Economic Literature classification.
An empirical look at whether growth in South American economies has gone hand in hand with falling or rising income inequality, and what that implies for distributional policy.
Policy research, analytics and operational data work across three countries.
Five sole-authored economics papers, and three co-authored papers on explainable and applied AI.
