Welcome!
I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Copenhagen and an Affiliated Professor of J-PAL.
My research uses experiments to study human behaviour in different domains.
Most of my work aims to understand how we can improve the functioning of labour markets and remove obstacles for the most disadvantaged workers.
