Welcome! I am Associate Director, Lead Economist in the Office of the Chief Economist at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development.
At the EBRD, I edit the Regional Economic Prospects, which review the latest economic developments in the EBRD regions, work on the Transition Report, EBRD’s annual flagship publication, and run the Life in Transition Survey, a large household survey covering 44 economies.
Prior to joining the EBRD, I worked as an economist at the International Monetary Fund in the European and the Research Departments, primarily on the World Economic Outlook.
I completed my PhD in Economics at the University of Cambridge. My research has been published in the European Economic Review, Economic Policy, Economics of Transition and Institutional Change, Applied Economics Letters, Journal of International Development, Oxford Economic Papers, World Development, the IZA Journal of Migration, Migration Studies and other peer-reviewed outlets.
