I am an applied micro-economist. My research interests are in the area of applied household economics and time allocation. In particular, I have studied couples' allocation of time to household work and leisure time at retirement; the impact of different forms of income taxation on household time uses; and the labour supply of couples in which the wife outearns the husband; as well as the decision to telework; job search and commute time. Another stream of my research focuses on conflict economics.

As President elect (2017-19) and President (2019-21) of the Society of the Economics of the HOusehold (SEHO), I organized the 2018 annual meeting of SEHO the Paris-School-of-Economics and co-organized the 2021 annual meeting of SEHO at Boston University, which took place virtually ( Program ),  and overviewed the organization of SEHO 2020 annual meeting at Venice Ca Foscari (cancelled due to the pandemics) . 

SEHO was founded in 2017 and counts over 400 members in 34 countries, spanning all continents seho-member-list.pdf .
