On the job market, 2026–27
Economics PhD candidate, Colorado State University
I study how fiscal shocks travel through production networks — why a contraction in one country–sector shows up as lost employment in another, and what that implies for how fiscal policy is designed and coordinated.
Using FIGARO inter-country tables and a network granular IV design, I estimate how fiscal shocks propagate through European input–output structure. Consolidation travels powerfully backward along demand linkages into employment, but only weakly forward into prices — which puts quantitative discipline on where aggregate fiscal risk sits.
How the industrial composition of an economy evolves, and how policy steers it. This work treats network position as an instrument: which industries are systemically significant, and how institutional capacity and public ownership decide whether a shock is transmitted or absorbed.
