About me

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Erasmus School of Economics, a candidate fellow at the Tinbergen Institute, and a Research Affiliate at IZA. I completed my PhD at the Department of Applied Economics of the Université libre de Bruxelles (DULBEA). 

I am an applied microeconomist studying how individuals adjust job search, training, and welfare participation decisions in response to changing incentives or new information. 

Using natural experiments, randomized controlled trials, and high-quality administrative and survey data, I provide causal evidence to inform policy design. Many of my projects are conducted in collaboration with policymakers.

In 2024, I was awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Postdoctoral Fellowship.
