I am Full Professor of Economics at the University of Limerick, Ireland, Head of the Department of Economics, Co-Director of the UL's Immersive Software Engineering programme, and Research Associate at the Rhodes Centre for International Finance at Brown University. I am a member of the Irish Government's AI Advisory Council.
I am Economic Advisor to An Taoiseach, Simon Harris.
My research is archived at Orcid and citations, etc., at Google Scholar. My academic CV is here as html, and here as PDF. That's me looking a bit grumpy over there to the right. You can sometimes, although rarely, find me on Twitter. I used to love that place.
I am Chief Economics Writer for The Currency.news, and was for 4 years a columnist with the Sunday Business Post. I have written for the Guardian, the New York Times, and the Irish Independent. I have twice won Economic Commentator of the Year for my columns.
