My research agenda
Issues and elections
My doctoral research seeks to understand how different types of issues operate in electoral politics by focusing on how these issues structure the behaviour of political elites and the mass public.
Public Opinion
I have contributed to the growing body of literature on public opinion in relation to COVID-19 policy interventions. I am currently investigating public attitudes towards cryptocurrencies.
