Applied microeconomist specializing in Public Economics, Urban Economics, and Political Economy.

PhD in Economics from Aix-Marseille School of Economics.

My research employs econometric methods, quasi-experimental designs, and spatial analysis to evaluate public policies. I draw on large-scale administrative data, surveys, and geocoded datasets to investigate topics and issues related to public policy evaluation, housing, inequality, local taxation, and public finance, with a strong emphasis on data-driven approaches. 

Currently, my research agenda focuses on public policy evaluation and microsimulation, with applications to housing markets and policies (e.g., housing allowances, social housing) as well as health economics (COVID-19 and urban exodus).

I am interested in academic research, applied economics, and policy-oriented issues, as I aim not only to contribute to the scientific literature, but also to bridge academic inquiry and real-world impact by providing policymakers with evidence-based recommendations, while fostering informed public debate.
