After completing BA (Hons) in Business Studies at the Open University, I went on to study MSc Finance and Investment Management at the University of Aberdeen. I received my PhD titled ‘An investigation of the behaviour of financial markets using agent-based computational models’ from Newcastle University. I am a Fellow member of the UK Higher Education Academy and I am teaching modules related to finance and stock market trading. My research is focused upon examining various stylized facts of financial returns and execution of trading strategies. I am a member of the editorial board of the Review of Behavioral Finance.
