Vita

I am a Professor of International Economics at Bielefeld University and head of the Research Group Trade Policy at the Kiel Institute for the World Economy. Previously, I was an assistant professor at Bielefeld University, head of the Kiel Institute’s Trade Policy Task Force, a visiting assistant professor at the Düsseldorf Institute for Competition Economics (DICE) of the University of Düsseldorf, and a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Kiel Institute. In 2018–2019 I was a Max Weber Fellow at the European University Institute in Florence. I hold a Ph.D. in Economics from the Paris School of Economics and Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. I am an associate editor for the Review of World Economics.

My work is at the intersection of international economics and data science, studying international trade and its connection with foreign policy, the spatial dimension of international trade, migration and finance, and related questions in applied econometrics. My work is characterized by policy-relevant research questions that make use of state-of-the-art quantitative methods often involving big data, as well as devising and implementing econometric techniques to handle such types of data. I have taught students from undergraduate to PhD-level, including courses on International Trade and Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, Statistics, and Data Science for Economists.
