Bio / CV

After primary and secondary school in Luxembourg, I did a bachelor degree in economics and business administration at the Université catholique de Louvain (UCLouvain). Following my graduation, I started a joint-degree research master in economics, spending the first year at the Católica Lisbon School of Business and Economics (Portugal) before returning to the Economic School of Louvain.

I remained at IRES, UCLouvain and started a Phd in economics in September 2010 under the supervision of Frédéric Docquier, while being a full-time teaching and research assistant. I also worked as an analyst at the Service d’Analyse Economique of my department (short-term forecasting). In 2013, I spent two months at the Université de Genève and one month at the University of Luxembourg (CREA). I defended my thesis on October 1st 2014 and became a FNR postdoctoral researcher at CREA between july 2015 and june 2017. Since the 1st of July 2017, I am a researcher at LISER (Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research).

On April 4-5th 2019, LISER hosted the "5th Workshop on the Economics of Migration", for which I was the local organizer.
