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).
My research interests are labor economics, health economics, and family economics. In my research, I use Danish administrative data and state-of-the-art microeconometric methods to answer societally important questions within those topics.
In Fall 2024, I visited Professor Nicole Maestas at the Department of Health Care Policy, Harvard University for which I received a Fulbright Grant.
