My Research
Dissertation: Essays in Macroeconomics
“My research focuses on monetary policy and how its effects differ across firms and countries. For example, I have studied the European Central Bank's asset purchases and found that large firms in core euro-area countries, such as Germany, France and the Netherlands, have benefited the most from this unconventional monetary policy measure.”
My Future
“I have recently started to work as an economist for the European Stability Mechanism (ESM)–the ‘lender of last resort’ for euro-area countries. I am excited to work towards the ESM's mission of safeguarding financial stability and fostering prosperity in the euro area as well as to continue my research.”
My Highlights
“I highly appreciated not only the BGSE's inspiring research environment but also its flexibility and comprehensive support that allowed me to visit both the European Central Bank and the University of Notre Dame (U.S.) during my PhD studies. Moreover, I liked the strong sense of community in Bonn's economics department and greatly enjoyed the many get-togethers, summer parties, soccer games and other social events.”
