I am a phd candidate at the ifo Institute and the University of Munich, and affiliated with SOFI at Stockholm University.

My areas of interest are Family and Education Economics. My work focuses on how parental investments, family structure and background impact children’s educational performance and development. I am especially interested in the integration of migrant children and families.

I received my master’s and bachelor’s degrees from Uppsala University.

Work in progress

  • In the Shadow of Brothers: Educational Achievements of Migrant Girls

  • Joint versus Sole Custody after Divorce: Causal Effects on Child Outcomes and Family Environment

  • Linguistic Distance and the Gender Gap in Education
