About me:
I am a Research Economist at the Banque de France and Visiting Assistant Professor at the Paris School of Economics.
I am an Assistant Professor (currently on leave) at the Economics department of the University of Essex.
My research focuses on macroeconomics (particularly labour markets and unemployment), firm dynamics, and optimal fiscal policy.
I received my PhD from the London School of Economics, supervised by Wouter den Haan.
