I am mainly working as macro-econometrician on modelling various topics in (international) macroeconomics, and am mostly interested in modelling  fiscal policy, spillover or productivity.

My research explains issues such as:

• why countries stay in high debt and low growth

• how spillover between markets affects policy in regions/countries 

• how risk and uncertainty affect policy decisions

I am an Assistant Professor at Universidad Pontificia Comillas, and a visiting professor at the College of Europe, and Universiteit Gent. I have been working before at the Universitat de Barcelona, as a Marie Curie Fellow at AQR-IREA, and as Assistant Professor at VUB, after getting my PhD in Economics from the European University Institute in 2006.
