Welcome!

I am a PhD candidate in the Applied Economics department at Erasmus University Rotterdam. I specialize in applied microeconomics, with a particular interest in health, labor and family economics.

I will be on the 2026-2027 job market.

My job market paper studies the effects of Dutch survivor benefit reforms on widows and their children’s long-run outcomes, using a regression discontinuity design.
