I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at QSMS Research Group at Budapest University of Technology and Economics. I completed my Ph.D. in Economics at the University of Edinburgh in 2022 under the supervision of Dr Andrew Clausen and Dr Ina Taneva. My research interests lie in microeconomic theory, applied statistics and environmental economics.
