πŸ§‘ I’m a Teaching Fellow in Economics at Trinity College Dublin, and hold a PhD and MSc. in Economics from the University of Limerick.

πŸ“œ My research interests focus on the economics of public service provision, including nationalisation, municipalisation, government procurement, privatisation, and public-private partnerships.

Selected Experience

πŸ’» Research Experience

My research areas focus on the economics of public service delivery. This research area is at the intersection of economics, public policy, public administration, and legal theory. I am affiliated with the P4 (Privatisation and Public-Private Partnerships) Research Cluster at the Kemmy Business School, University of Limerick, where I published research on the governance and performance of Public-Private Partnerships.

I have four peer reviewed works from my PhD thesis including my most recent ABS 4 publication in Public Administration. My current work is focused on the hazards of contracting, including the impact of COVID-19 and contractor failure on public works projects.

Feel free to visit my Research Section or Current Projects Section for more information.
