My research investigates how aggregate shocks transmit through the economy by combining novel microdata with credible causal identification. A central feature of my work is bridging academic research with industry data, exemplified by a four-year collaboration I established with BNP Paribas Fortis. This "micro-to-macro" approach has allowed me to analyze the heterogeneous impacts of oil and income shocks, pandemics, and wealth taxation. My work is informed by wide reading across many subfields of economics, as illustrated by the JEL codes from my research library in the word cloud below. Reflecting my particular enjoyment of coding and data visualization, I am committed to producing open-source, replicable work; for instance, I developed an interactive public dashboard visualizing municipal COVID-19 data in Belgium for my first publication.
