Welcome!
I am a PhD student at LMU Munich and a guest PhD student at ifo Institute.
In spring 2026, I visit Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania sponsored by Ben Lockwood.
My interests lie in Public Economics, Political Economy and Applied Microeconomics.
In my current research, I work at the intersection of theory and empirics with a focus on the design and potential reforms of tax-transfer and social insurance systems.
