I am an Advanced Researcher (Postdoc) in the Department of Household Finance at Leibniz Institute for Financial Research SAFE.

My research is at the intersection of applied networks, household finance, and behavioral finance. 

I am on the Job Market this year and welcome inquiries or opportunities to discuss my research. 

Main Research Fields: Household Finance, Social Finance, Sustainable Finance, Applied Networks, Financial Literacy.

• In June 2025, I was thrilled to be back in Barcelona to present my paper "Peer Effects in Multi-Layer Networks: Evidence from Financial Behavior  with Gabriela Stockler (SSRN) at the BSE Summer Forum on how networks shape financial decisions — and to dive into the rich conversations on network effects across so many domains. 

• In November 2024, I presented a new working paper, "Greener Pensions, Greener Choices: Linking Investments to Sustainable Behavior," at the PeRCent Annual Conference 2024. In the paper, Charlotte Christiansen, Malene Kallestrup, and I investigate how offering individuals to switch to a "green" pension plan affects their pension and consumption choices. We find that individuals improve the sustainability level of consumption, especially when deciding not to switch to sustainable pension plans. The conference is a unique event that brings researchers and practitioners interested in pension saving.

• In October 2024, I presented an updated version of "Personal Financial Advice and Portfolio Quality" at the Research in Behavioral Finance Conference. The paper uses a referral campaign with individual portfolio data and data from a survey of a representative sample of retail investors to investigate the mechanism and consequences of personal financial advice. It was a great opportunity to present the new data and to get great comments!
