Biography

I am working as an environmental economist at Paris School of Economics (PSE), located at the Campus Jourdan in Paris. I am a research fellow at the CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique).

My research interests are related to the link between trade liberalization and the environment, in a world where countries do not fully cooperate on environmental issues, and to political economy constraints on (environmental) policies.
