Incoming research assistant at the LSE Centre for Macroeconomics.
My research lies in macroeconomics, monetary economics, and computational methods, with a focus on heterogeneity. I combine structural modeling with data-driven approaches, and am especially interested in applying machine learning and deep learning to solve and estimate rich heterogeneous-agent models.
