      Working both with Prof. Alan Manning on a book on immigration policy in economics and Dr Judith Shapiro on Soviet post-1985 economic history research. When applying as a first-year, I was chosen as 1/50+ strong applicants spanning the entire undergraduate and graduate cohorts. My work so far has been primarily the usage of Stata to analyse tabular global, national and local economic time series data on population flows in numerous contexts, examining patterns and visualising prominent trends. I have also been conducting literature and research searches, aiming to consolidating that which has been written by Prof. Manning. Show less

      In my role working in cryptocurrency asset research, I was actively involved in the fundraising process required in order to make the cryptocurrency fund active and operating. I mainly focused on market research and analysis of other cryptocurrency funds, so that the firm could understand the existing strategies used. I played a key role in the compilation of a document that evaluated the firm’s investment strategies and discussed how to improve them through the implementation of various techniques, ultimately increasing the return on investment.
