I've looked at what sport attendance patterns can tell us about individual preferences, and also what impact it can have on broader outcomes such as public health. That's because sport is a big part of the economy (it's not just leisure), but also because sport is so well measured that we can analyse the impact of decisions about scarce inputs on outputs and outcomes - the basis of all economic analysis. My DPhil was predominantly in macroeconometric modelling forecasting, but gradually over time I've moved towards doing research using sport. I was then a Postdoctoral Fellow at Oxford before moving to the University of Birmingham to become a Lecturer in 2009, and in 2013 I moved to the University of Reading. After that, I went to Oxford to do an MPhil and DPhil (PhD), supervised by Sir Prof David F Hendry. Background I studied Economics at Durham as an undergraduate, switching from a maths degree that I couldn't do at the end of my first year.
