I am an Assistant Professor (Jun.Prof.) in Macroeconomics at the University of Heidelberg.
My general approach in research is to incorporate behavioral and bounded rationality features into macroeconomic modelling. I believe that new insights can be obtained by also considering models that deviate from the fully rational representative agent that optimizes over an infinite planning horizon. I am especially interested in studying issues and models that concern monetary and fiscal policy. My aim is to use a bounded rationality to gain new insights that are relevant for policy makers.
