I am an Assistant Professor (non-tenure track) at the ifo Institute and LMU Munich, and a CESifo Research Affiliate. I lead the Leibniz Junior Research Group “GloBack” (2026–2031) and coordinate the CESifo visitor program.
I received my PhD from Tilburg University in 2020 and was a postdoctoral researcher at IRES, UCLouvain, from 2020 to 2023. I studied economics at the University of Tübingen.
