Biographical Information
Prior to joining CCSR I worked as a researcher at the Centre for Urban Policy Studies at the University of Manchester on projects for the Department of Communities and Local Government, the Northern Way Secretariat, the North West Development Agency, Manchester City Council and Manchester Enterprises. My research interests include urban policy evaluation, neighbourhood dynamics and deprivation, internal and international migration. I have a BSc in Economics from City University, an MSc in Economics from Birkbeck College and an MSc in Social Research Methods and Statistics from the University of Manchester.
