Thank you for visiting my website. I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Academic Collaborative Center for Governance and Management for Broad Prosperity within the department Economics at Tilburg School of Economics and Management (TiSEM). Here, I teach and work on translating data-driven policy analysis and inequality economics into societal impact.
My other fields of interest include climate finance, life-cycle investments under interest rate risk, and robust portfolio choice under parameter uncertainty.
I completed my PhD at the department Econometrics at Tilburg University with my (co-)promotors Frank de Jong and Anne Balter. My dissertation can be found under "Research".
Moreover, I am a research fellow at Netspar, a Dutch inter-university research network. I bring business experience from working at an actuarial consultancy company and an insurance company, where I worked as a certified AG actuary.
