She holds a PhD in Economics from the University of Paris I Pantheon-Sorbonne & CREST, alongside MAs in Economics (CERGE-EI, Prague) and Applied Mathematics (Novosibirsk State University). Her research focuses on applied econometrics, labor economics, policy evaluation, and demographic economics, with a particular emphasis on household resource allocation, informal employment, and development economics.
Her academic career includes tenure as an Assistant Professor at American University since 2011, visiting roles at Columbia University (2015-2016, 2018) and Université de Pau (2018). She is a Research Fellow at the Institute of Labor Economics (IZA). Her teaching includes graduate courses in labor economics and applied econometrics.
Her research spans topics such as marital payoff dynamics, agricultural commercialization in Malawi, wage dynamics across academic majors, and time-use studies in South Africa. Recent work examines heterogeneity in informal employment and intra-household welfare sharing using subjective data. She has supervised numerous PhD students, many of whom have secured academic or World Bank positions.
Notably, her studies on student evaluations of teaching and Egyptian labor market structures have contributed to understanding biases in educational metrics and informal sector dynamics. Her work integrates econometric rigor with policy-relevant insights in labor, development, and household economics.
