I am a research student in Politics at the University of Southampton, interested in political attitudes, public policy and quantitative methodology.

My substantive research focuses on political attitudes in Europe: what people think, why they think it, and what this means for politics.

I first did my undergraduate degree in Politics at the University of Essex. After that, I went to work as a Visiting Researcher at the University of Iceland, before returning to Essex to work at the Institute for Social and Economic Research. I then moved to London to work at the Institute for Government, where I worked primarily in their data team but also on devolution policy in Higher Education. Whilst there I also wrote on civil service reform. I then came to Southampton on a 1+3 ESRC scholarship and completed an MSc in Governance and Policy before beginning my PhD. 

So far, my research has been funded by the Universities of Oxford, Essex and Southampton, and the British Academy.
