Macro, econometrics and models — with a focus on making it useful

I work at the intersection of economics, data, and communication. I value "classic craftsmanship": clear assumptions, proper documentation, and results that can be explained without requiring the reader to have 300 pages of prior knowledge.

The Will to Disprove

My path to becoming an economist has not been straightforward. I have learned to turn skepticism into courage and adversity into resolve. Read my personal story about the journey from epilepsy and special education to cand.polit.

Focus Areas

Macroeconomics & Monetary Policy

I am particularly interested in how monetary policy "lands" in practice: through financial markets, expectations, credit channels, and differences across countries/sectors.

Econometrics & Time Series

Forecasting, identification, and robustness. I enjoy methods that are both technically solid and can be explained to a regular person without them falling asleep.

Models & Structure

CGE/RBC/DSGE thinking: clear assumptions, consistency, checks, and baseline/zero-shock discipline.

Data & Tooling

I build small pipelines and templates: from data cleaning to output, ensuring reproducibility and reuse.

How I work

My standard workflow (a bit boring — but that's exactly why it works):

  • 1) Clarify goals: what should the decision-maker/reader be able to do afterwards?
  • 2) Document data: sources, definitions, units, missing/outliers, transformations.
  • 3) Choose method: simple first, then "fancier" if it adds real value.
  • 4) Checks: sanity checks, robustness, alternative specifications, edge cases.
  • 5) Communication: conclusions, limitations, and "what does this mean in practice?"

Teaching & Communication

I have experience teaching Excel/VBA and like to keep things practical: cases, exercises, the "why" behind functions, and small shortcuts that make a big difference.

My Teaching Style

  • Structure first (goal → solution → quality check)
  • Hands-on: better one good case than 30 slides
  • Reusable templates

What I typically help with

  • Excel models, dashboards, and logic
  • Data cleaning and reproducible workflows
  • Small scripts and automation

Outside of studies

I enjoy routines and progression — both in training and in projects. It might sound a bit "office-geeky," but it's honestly quite satisfying to see curves going in the right direction.
