My research lies at the intersection of digital and development economics. More specifically, I assess the economic, social and political impact of telecommunications infrastructures and networks, particularly in developing countries. My recent research also focuses on the role of digital platforms in the evolution of the labor market, and on democratic dynamics in these same contexts. I am also interested in the economics of industrial organization.
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at CREST (Télécom Paris, Institut Polytechnique de Paris). I am also an Associate Researcher at UMR Développement & Sociétés (Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, IRD).
I hold a PhD in Economics from the Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.
