Welcome to my website! I am a PhD student in Economics at the University of Amsterdam, under the supervision of Arthur Schram and Randolph Sloof.

My research examines voting behaviour, with a focus on protest voting. I investigate the interaction between protest voting and opinion polls. I also explore whether this voting strategy does affect politicians' behaviour.

In my job market paper, I explore the consequences of voting decisions on prosocial attitudes and examine whether the preferences or votes of others are more important determinants of how altruistic voters behave towards each other.

Before my academic journey, I worked for the British Civil Service in both analysis and policy roles.
