About


Photo by Jeffrey Schifman

I am an economist at the International Finance Corporation (IFC, World Bank Group) and a CEPR affiliate. I specialise in private sector development in emerging markets and work at the intersection of research and policy. My work combines causal inference, firm-level and administrative data, and field research to understand what helps firms grow, innovate and access markets, with the goal of generating evidence that can inform policy and operational decisions.

Before joining IFC, I was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics at Sciences Po in Paris. I completed a PhD in Economics at Columbia University and an Engineering Degree from École Polytechnique.
