I am an economist. I build quantitative economic models for clients who need rigorous analysis to inform strategy, policy, and investment decisions.
Consulting
Economic Impact Assessment Bottom-up and top-down modelling of the economic footprint of investments, infrastructure, and programmes. Work spans city and regional growth analysis (GVA, employment, scenario modelling), national-level assessments, and sector-specific impact studies across creative industries, defence, manufacturing, and data infrastructure.
AI Economics Modelling the economic impact of AI adoption for technology clients. This includes labour market analysis using task-based frameworks (which tasks AI augments or displaces), productivity and time-savings estimation, and sectoral impact modelling across manufacturing, healthcare, and professional services. Recent work includes large-scale AI opportunity assessments across national economies.
Industrial Organisation Market structure analysis, competitive dynamics, and sectoral modelling. Applied to defence companies, technology platforms, and regulated industries.
My analytical foundation is in applied econometrics and causal inference, built through a PhD in Economics at the University of Geneva.
I also produce technical writing — translating complex modelling into clear, decision-ready reports for executive and policy audiences.
Writing
I write on markets, geopolitics, and the economics underlying events that matter. This includes financial and macro analysis — time series, VAR/VECM, and capital markets — alongside geopolitics and development economics. The posts here apply the same rigour as the consulting work, to the stories worth telling.
