Alexander Wurdinger

Welcome!

I am a sixth year PhD student in the Department of Economics at the University of Minnesota. Additionally, I am a Research Analyst at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. My research focuses on how large-scale macroeconomic changes affect labor market outcomes across different groups of workers and how policy can help shape those outcomes. I do so by combining economic theory and computational methods with causal inference using microdata. My job market paper is titled "Declining Teen Employment: Causes and Consequences".
