His research integrates theoretical modeling and empirical analysis to understand labor market fluctuations, including topics like on-the-job search, vacancy chains, and dynamic monopsony. Recent projects examine growth models, wage adjustment mechanisms, and bargaining frameworks.

Key trends in his publications include stochastic employment opportunities (2021), firm dynamics (2022), wage dispersion (2023), vacancy chain mechanisms (2024), and labor-growth interactions (2025). These works often employ computational models and empirical validation via replication datasets.
