About.
I am an Associate Professor of Information Systems at Alliance Manchester Business School, The University of Manchester. I was previously Assistant and then Associate Professor at Loughborough University, and a Visiting Scholar at the University of California, San Diego.
My research examines how digitalization and financialization are reshaping contemporary capitalism, redefining who holds power in the global economy and on what terms. I adopt an interdisciplinary perspective at the intersection of Information Systems and Political Economy.
My work has been published in Information Systems Journal and Review of International Political Economy, among other scholarly journals.
I regularly collaborate with practitioners and policymakers to help ensure that digital and financial innovations serve people and the planet.
I am the Programme Director of the MSc in Digital Transformation and teach Digital Technologies for Business, and Organising and Managing Change in the Digital Age.
My teaching emphasizes pedagogical innovation, industry-relevant skills, and an inclusive learning environment.
