I am a Lecturer in Finance at Bangor University. My research is primerily focused on examining how banks and Credit Rating Agencies react to financial regulation.

My PhD was in Banking and Finance where I investigated the impact of new regulation on Credit Rating Agency and Bank behaviour and applied computer modelling techniques to the task (Dynamic Structural Estimation modelling and Discrete Choice Dynamic Programming). I also have a background in Physics.

I have worked as Head of Data and Analytics for a Fin-Tech startup dealing with stock recommendations, as data scientist and as a mathematician/statstician.
