Fields
Applied Microeconomics and Labor Economics.
Research
Consumption and Labor Supply, Household Behavior, Economics of Aging.
My research concerns inter-temporal decision-making of individuals and households. The main focus is on labor supply and consumption/saving choices. A strand of my research focuses on retirement. I study the role of Social Security rules, private pensions, private wealth, labor income, and health status in determining retirement choices, both at the individual and couple level. I also study the extent to which correlations in spouses' preferences lead to coordinated retirement decisions.
