Primary research areas

Spa­tial fric­tions and eco­nom­ic de­vel­op­ment
I in­vest­ig­ate the im­pacts of spa­tial fric­tions (e.g., move­ment costs, trade costs, trans­port­a­tion costs etc.) on key de­vel­op­ment in­dic­at­ors in low- and middle-in­come coun­tries.
Mar­ket and non-mar­ket in­ter­ac­tions in spa­tial eco­nom­ies
I in­vest­ig­ate the im­pact of gov­ern­ment policy on loc­a­tion choice in mar­ket eco­nom­ies.
Urb­an eco­nom­ics
I in­vest­ig­ate what de­term­ines the struc­ture of cit­ies – an­swer­ing ques­tions such as “who lives where and why?” and “where does pro­duc­tion take place and why?”.

“Loc­a­tion, loc­a­tion, loc­a­tion”

My research deals with the economic causes and consequences of location choice – where do people choose to live, where do companies choose to produce, and how does this affect property markets, the benefits of infrastructure investments, human welfare, and economies at large? My research has implications for policy makers across the globe, dealing both with the challenges faced by governments in developing and developed economies.
