I am an Assistant Professor in climate economics at the University of Lille (LEM) and an Associate Researcher at EconomiX (University of Paris Nanterre). My research examines how climate variability and climate change shape economic outcomes, using modern econometric methods and predictive modeling. A central focus of my work is the role of large-scale climate phenomena—such as the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO)—in driving local and regional adjustments. I study how these shocks propagate through agricultural production, employment, and migration. More recently, I have been evaluating the economic consequences of air-quality policies targeting fine particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), with particular attention to distributional impacts, inequality, and poverty.
