I'm an expert in the macroeconomics of climate change and sustainability at Cambridge University, where I’m the Co-Director of the climaTRACES Lab, a new interdisciplinary research initiative at the University of Cambridge focusing on climate, nature, and sustainability. I'm also the Deputy Director of the Cambridge Executive MBA programme and Fellow in Economics at King’s College, Cambridge, where I co-founded and direct the King’s Entrepreneurship Lab.
In addition to climate change and sustainability, my research covers energy economics, economics of the Middle East, and applied macroeconomics more broadly. My articles have been published in a number of edited volumes as well as in leading academic journals, and have been covered in major international news outlets. My work has been cited extensively by policymakers, including by more than 25 members of the United States Congress, the Congressional Budget Office, and the White House. I’m among the top 1% of authors in IDEAS/RePEc rankings based on last 10 years of publications.
I work extensively on issues related to climate change and sustainability with both the public (including the United Nations, World Bank, Asian Development Bank, IDB) and the private sector (BCG, BNP Paribas, KPMG and many others). I’m currently Senior Consultant at the World Bank, have been a regular visiting scholar at the International Monetary Fund, and have previously served as a Departmental Special Advisor at the Bank of Canada.
