About Me
In September 2026 I join the Netherlands Bureau for Economic Policy Analysis (Centraal Planbureau, CPB) in The Hague as Scientific Staff (wetenschappelijk medewerker), after completing my PhD in Economics at Ghent University. My research maps aggregate shocks into household decisions and regional outcomes, guided by a micro-to-macro approach that combines large-scale administrative data and causal inference. My job-market paper reveals a stark split in how U.S. households restructure debt after income windfalls.
My work bridges academic rigor with real-world application, drawing on my experience as an Economist in Residence at BNP Paribas Fortis, and as a risk analyst and market operations trainee at the European Central Bank, where I gained firsthand insight into monetary policy implementation. These roles were instrumental in securing the innovative industry partnerships that define my doctoral work. I strive to publish open, reproducible tools to support my research.
