I am an applied micro-economist. My research interests are in the area of applied household economics. In particular, I have studied retirement decisions of couples and household time allocation.  More recent research of mine focuses on the impact of terrorism on individual behaviour. 

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. I also run SEHO google wbesite. SEHO counts today over 400 members in 34 countries.seho-member-list.pdf
