I am an applied economist working on topics in labor economics, immigration and education. My recent work combines microeconometric analysis and field experiments to better understand how to support jobseekers. I am a co-founder of Path2Work.
I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Labor Group led by Rafael Lalive at the University of Lausanne. I completed my PhD in Economics at the University of St.Gallen under the supervision of Reto Föllmi (2022). I visited the NHH in Bergen in 2024 and the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in 2021 and 2022.
