My research centers on applied microeconomics, combining empirical and experimental approaches to understand how individual behavior interacts with institutional settings in education and health. Much of my recent work focuses on behavioral and health-economic perspectives on maternal and child health, especially infant feeding decisions, while earlier projects examined educational investment, health behaviors, and international student mobility.
I have presented my work at leading international conferences, including meetings of the European Economic Association, the Society of Labor Economists, the European Society for Population Economics, the Economic Science Association, and the Canadian Economics Association.
