I am a research fellow at the German Institute for Global and Area Studies (GIGA) and a postdoctoral researcher at the Chair of Development Economics and Global Political Economy at the University of Göttingen. I hold a PhD in economics from the University of Göttingen, supervised by Prof. Dr. Andreas Fuchs. In the fall of 2024, I was a visiting PhD student at the University of Cambridge's Conservation Research Institute.
My research employs quasi-experimental methods to study questions related to economic development, environmental policy, international trade, and political economy.
