I am an applied microeconometrician in the fields of labor economics and health economics with interests in structural estimation, experimental, and behavioral methods. I was awarded a €1.5 Million ERC Starting Grant for my project "FELICITAS" to study essential preferences, skills, and other personal attributes which matter for a good life.
