I am a Senior Economist at Danmarks Nationalbank, the central bank of Denmark.

My research is in applied labor economics and firm dynamics. I use Danish linked employer–employee and firm-level administrative data to study labor markets and labor market competition. 

A second strand of my work concerns household wealth and pensions; I am a main contributor to developing individual-level datasets on Danish pension wealth and returns. 

I received my PhD in Economics from Aarhus University in November 2020.

Beyond my academic work, I am a published poet and literary translator working between Italian, English, and Spanish. 

Fields: Labour Economics · Firm Dynamics · Financial Frictions · Pension and Household Finance
