Personal profile

Short presentation

I am an economist working at Center of Excellence in Early Intervention and Family Studies (CIF) at the Department of Psychology at University of Copenhagen. I was previously a post doc at CEBI and a Research Associate at UCL. I hold a PhD in Economics from the University of Copenhagen.

 

The overarching theme of my research is inequality. I am particularly interested in how universal provision of child care, parental time investments, and early life circumstances affect short- and long-run child development. 

In my current research I investigate how infant distress relates to early rapid growth.
