Short Biography

I am the World Bank Country Economist for Chad, based in N’Djamena. I work on macroeconomic policy, public finance, structural reforms, and private sector and job creation issues, supporting the World Bank’s economic policy dialogue with the Government of Chad and contributing to analytical work and development financing operations.

I joined the World Bank in 2022 as a WBG Africa Fellow, and have since worked across the Education and Macroeconomics, Trade and Investment teams. Prior to joining the World Bank, I worked with the OECD and the International Organization for Migration (IOM) on economic and migration-related issues. I also served in the Government of Chad as a technical advisor on economic planning and international cooperation.

I hold a PhD in Economics from Université Paris-Dauphine and a Master’s degree in Development Economics from Université Clermont Auvergne. I have taught microeconometrics and statistics at Paris-Dauphine and published research in international academic journals, including Energy Economics and the Journal of Development Studies. My areas of expertise include macroeconomics, development economics, econometrics, public policy, and economic transformation in Africa.
