PhD Defence, November 2025
About me
About me
I'm a postdoc at the Department of Economics and Business Economics at Aarhus University.
I hold a PhD in Economics from Aarhus University, and I'm affiliated with the Pension Research Centre (PeRCent) at Copenhagen Business School (CBS) and Pension Research Institute Iceland (PRICE). In my research, I use Danish administrative data and state-of-the-art microeconometric methods to answer societally important questions within the topics of pensions, aging, and retirement.
In Fall 2024, I visited Professor Nicole Maestas at the Department of Health Care Policy, Harvard University for which I received a Fulbright Grant.
My research interests are more broadly retirement economics, economics of aging, health economics, and labor economics.
