WELCOME TO MY WEBSITE!

I serve as a senior economist at the Belgian Competition Authority (Chief Economist Team), where I provide economic analyses and quantitative evidence across a wide range of cases. I combine theoretical models and empirical methods to assess market dynamics and identify theories of harm in merger reviews and abuse of dominance investigations. Alongside casework, I contribute to long-term projects focusing on local market delineation, simulation techniques, merger screening tools, and sectoral studies.

Prior to joining the Belgian Competition Authority, I gained experience in private practice and conducted academic research with prominent institutions such as the United Nations and the French Council of Economic Analysis. My articles have received special recognition from:

• the Belgian Fund for Scientific Research (Best PhD dissertation in all fields of science), 

• the United Nations (Best Research Work on International Investment and Development), and 

• the EU Tax Observatory (Young Researcher Award). 

I hold a PhD in Economics from Université Libre de Bruxelles, an MRes in Economics from Institut Polytechnique de Paris, and an Engineering degree in Statistics from ENSAE Paris. You can find more details about my background and current activities in my resume.
