I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Social Policy and Intervention and the Institute for New Economic Thinking at the University of Oxford. As part of the Oxford Martin Programme on Inequality and Prosperity, my research looks at the relationship between welfare states and women’s employment position across advanced economies using qualitative and quantitative methods.
In 2018, I obtained my PhD in comparative social policy at the University of Southampton. My thesis examined the gendered dimensions of labour market ‘activation’ policies across advanced economies. Since then, I have held a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Southampton, looking at the relationship between public policies and women’s access to the very top jobs, and have been a research fellow on the project, Female Breadwinner Families in Europe.
