Short Biography

I am currently working as a Research Fellow at University College London (UCL) and a Research Affiliate at University of Cambridge. My current research at UCL focuses on the distributional impacts of the net-zero transition on electricity consumers in the UK. At University of Cambridge, I examine the drivers of productivity in key sectors of the UK economy and the role of digitalisation.

Previously, I worked as a Senior Researcher at the Research Institute for Labour and Social Affairs (RILSA), where my research focused on labour economics, energy economics, and macroeconomic analysis of the Czech labour market, in cooperation with the Czech Ministry of Labour. Apart from my research, I worked on developing a new social benefits system for the Czech Republic, implemented in October 2025. I also worked as a Research Associate at University of Cambridge, and a Research Consultant at the European Investment Fund in Luxembourg. My research focused on the small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), particularly the private equity, venture capital, and business angel investors, green finance, ESG aspects, and the impact of the geopolitical and energy crisis.

I hold a PhD in Economics from the University of Surrey and my thesis focused on the demand and pricing aspects of clean and conventional automobiles in the United Kingdom. I received my MSc in International Economics, Finance, and Development, and BSc in Economics and Finance from the University of Surrey.

My research “Is Digitalisation Boosting the Decarbonisation of Industries?” won the 2024 Rybczynski Prize, awarded by The Society of Professional Economists.
