I am a Senior Lecturer in microeconomics and microeconometrics in the Department of Economics at the University of Malta; and a graduate of the Universities of Warwick, Loughborough and Malta. My research interests span public, urban and international economics. Specifically, I use game theory and econometrics to answer questions on foreign direct investment, the housing market and policy more generally.

Previously I held several posts in the public and private sectors, including Senior Economist at the Economic Policy Department (within the Ministry for Finance), Senior Economist at Malta Enterprise (the agency responsible for the attraction of FDI), Director at the Office for Competition, and Director of Economic Advisory Services at Grant Thornton. I remain involved in consultancy projects that inform government policy and business decisions both in Malta and abroad.
