I am an assistant professor at the University of Liverpool. My main research fields are labor, development, and political economy. My current research interests are in intergenerational mobility. In particular, I am interested in understanding what determines the geographical variations in the mobility rates in a country. My paper explores historical and contemporaneous factors that affect social mobility. I am also interested in exploring other channels of inequality persistence.
