Economics & Data
Interactive Dashboards, Research & Policy Insights
Economics & Mathematics undergraduate at the University of Sheffield exploring the intersection of applied economics, data-driven analysis, and interactive visualizations.
About
I'm an Economics & Mathematics undergraduate at the University of Sheffield, currently pursuing CFA Level I. My work focuses on applied econometrics, data visualisation, and turning complex economic data into clear, actionable insights. Through internships and hands-on projects, I build interactive dashboards and analytical tools that connect real-world behaviour with evidence-based economic analysis.
Projects
Interactive dashboards and data visualizations
UK Housing Affordability Dashboard
An interactive dashboard visualizing housing affordability across UK regions. Explore price-to-income ratios, mortgage affordability metrics, and regional variations through interactive choropleth maps and dynamic sliders. Built using comprehensive ONS housing data to provide insights into one of the UK's most pressing economic challenges.
UK Retail Spending & Inflation Tracker
Dashboard comparing nominal vs real retail spending over time with interactive sliders to explore different time periods and inflation adjustments.
Remote Work & UK Income Analysis
Econometric analysis exploring how remote work during the pandemic relates to income patterns using panel data methods and statistical modeling.
Future Dashboard Project
Placeholder for upcoming dashboard projects and data visualizations. More interactive economics dashboards coming soon.
Research & Writing
Academic research and economic analysis
An Empirical Analysis of California's 1990 Housing Market
A comprehensive machine learning analysis of California housing prices using 1990 U.S. census data. This study employs linear regression, Ridge, and Lasso models to predict median house values across California districts. The analysis includes extensive data cleaning, feature engineering of spatial patterns (Latitude², Longitude², and their interaction), and model evaluation. Key findings reveal that geographic location and average number of bedrooms are the most influential predictors of housing prices, with the best-performing model explaining 67.7% of price variation. The study demonstrates how spatial features capture the premium associated with coastal and metropolitan properties, providing insights into regional economic inequality and housing market dynamics.

A structural VAR analysis examining the link between monetary policy, bank liquidity creation, and economic growth in the United States using quarterly data from 1988 to 2016. This study employs Bauer-Swanson (2023) orthogonalised monetary-policy shocks to isolate exogenous policy effects and address identification challenges. The findings reveal that contractionary monetary-policy shocks lead to short-lived declines in total liquidity creation and modest falls in real GDP growth, with off-balance-sheet activities responding more sharply than on-balance-sheet lending. The results provide evidence of a modest and asymmetric transmission mechanism, where policy effects depend critically on the nature of liquidity creation and the prevailing financial environment.
