About

I am a third-year PhD-student in Economics at Umeå University under the supervision of Gauthier Lanot, Hanna Lindström, Johan Lundberg and Michael Simmons. During the fall in 2025 I am visiting Universitat de Barcelona, hosted by Libertad González 

My primary research interests regard empirical Labor, Gender and Spatial Economics.

Currently, I am working with Swedish registry data on a project concerning large industrial investments on local labor markets, as well as a project on the interaction between firm characteristics and parenthood on the labor market.
