About

Background

I’m an economist and data scientist based in Germany, with a BSc in Economics from University of Bristol. My work sits at the intersection of quantitative methods and real-world impact: from estimating causal effects of institutional quality on economic development, to simulating net-zero pathways for local government.

I’m particularly interested in how data and evidence can support sustainability decision-making. My bachelor’s thesis used instrumental variables to investigate the deep determinants of economic development, and I’ve since applied similar thinking to ESG-adjacent problems: how do we measure what matters, when the things that matter are hard to observe?

What I’m looking for

Roles in:

  • ESG Reporting & Analytics — sustainability data pipelines, reporting frameworks (TCFD, GRI, SFDR), emissions accounting
  • Research & Policy Analysis — applied econometrics, causal inference, evidence synthesis
  • Data Science — ML pipelines, predictive modelling, insight generation
