I am an economist whose research addresses various dimensions of economic development, with a focus on formal political economy mechanisms.
In 2016, I joined the Department of Economics of Université Laval. Before that, I spent 18 months at the Department of Government in Harvard.
I received my PhD in 2015 from EHESS, at the Paris School of Economics.
