I am a PhD candidate at the Chair of Fiscal and Economic Policy at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland. I do research in the field of political economy and focus on public choice, political representation and incentives and constraints shaping individual and thus social choice.
I am also currently working at the Institute for Swiss Economic Policy (IWP) in Lucerne, Switzerland. There I help to run the online platform Parlameter, which measures Swiss politics in a way that is publicly accessible to everyone and thus makes it more transparent.
