Tach & welcome!
I am a PhD candidate at the Ifo Institute and Munich Graduate School of Economics. During 2024, I visited the University of Toronto and the Institute for Gender and the Economy.
My main research interests are public and gender economics. Particularly, I analyze what influences the labor and income allocation within the household and whether these outcomes are driven by public policies or norms.
I am on the academic job market in the fall of 2025. My job market paper analyzes the interplay of gender norms on household income tax responses. You can find my CV here and my research here.
🎵 During my free time, I obsess over music, which is why I also include some of my musical recommendations and playlists here.
