About Me
I am a PhD Economics Student at Lancaster University supervised by Prof. Lorenza Rossi and Dr. Stefano Fasani. I obtained my MSc in Applied Economics from the University of Strathclyde.
Before starting my PhD, I worked as a Research Assistant (Economist) at the Centre for the Study of the Economies of Africa (CSEA). My work covered macroeconomic monitoring and evidence-based policy-oriented development research, including the production of CSEA’s monthly Nigeria Macroeconomic Snapshot, policy briefs, research reports and presentations. Selected examples of my macroeconomic monitoring work are available here.
I also serve as an EDI representative for the North West Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership. In my free time, I mentor graduate students from Africa who are interested in pursuing higher education opportunities. If you are an African student considering graduate school and need guidance, shoot me an email here.
Mentorship: Through the
Northern Elite Scholars platform — a Northern Nigeria-focused mentorship programme — we have supported mentees in securing over $1,000,000 in scholarship funding. If you would like to support our initiative, please
get in touch.
