Introduction
I'm a Senior Lecturer in Entrepreneurship, joining NUBS in January 2014 and completing my PhD the same year. My research and teaching focuses on issues related to entrepreneurship, international development and poverty. In particular, I conduct research on social entrepreneurship and microfinance. Similarly, I have researched social impact bonds and I'm more broadly interested in aspects of social investment and entrepreneurial finance. I teach entrepreneurship courses with an international and social dimension.
I am the (Joint) Director of Impact at NUBS and the PhD convenor for the Marketing, Operations & Systems subject group.
