Prior to his PhD, Joe graduated first in his class with degrees from Oxford and Cambridge Universities. He has been awarded a number of grants and prizes, including from the Economic and Social Research Council and the Leverhulme Trust.

Joe is a fourth-year PhD researcher at the University of Cambridge Judge Business School.
