Bio

I am a Lecturer in Accounting at the Adam Smith Business School, University of Glasgow. My research examines corporate narrative disclosure in financial and ESG reporting, with a focus on its determinants, properties, and its capital market and real effects. I am particularly interested in gender-related disclosure, specifically how mandatory gender pay gap reporting shapes firm behaviour and outcomes such as innovation. A further strand of my work studies mergers and acquisitions, especially their effects on labour markets and the information environment. Methodologically, I use natural language processing and AI to extract and measure information from unstructured textual data that firms release through emerging disclosure channels. Outside work, I enjoy climbing, travelling and playing video games.
