Summary
I am a Reader (Associate Professor) in Accounting and Finance at Brunel Business School. In the past I was also the Divisional Lead for the Division of Accounting at Brunel. I practice research led teaching and do research that is multi-disciplinary, relevant and impactful. One of my research papers, 'Environmental and social disclosures: Link with corporate financial performance' is the top cited paper (as of 2021) of British Accounting Review - a premier Accounting and Finance journal.
My research is currently informing policy on sustainability reporting as I continue to work with the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) on their European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) development. In the past, I have made written submissions to various national regulatory bodies including the Financial Reporting Council, UK. I also responded to the open consultation on potential changes to the governance and financing of European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG).
My research interests span the fields of accounting, finance, entrepreneurship/small business and the informal sector particularly the domestic work sector.
