Short bio
I am a macroeconomist with research interests in monetary and fiscal policy. Prior to joining the Banque de France Monetary Policy Division in September 2016, I was a research associate at the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW Berlin) in the macroeconomics department.
I received my Ph.D. in economics from Freie Universität Berlin in 2015. I hold a Diploma in economics (equivalent to M.Sc.) from University of Münster and a maîtrise from Université Paris 2 Panthéon-Assas.
