I am an Associate Professor of Economics at University Paris-Saclay and a research affiliate at the French National Institute of Research for Sustainable Development (IRD, LEDa-DIAL). My research focuses on development economics, poverty and inequality with a particular attention to migration, education and health issues. My work is based on extensive fieldwork, involving survey design and the collection of household-level data.
