Welcome!

I am a Junior Professor of Food Economics and Policy at the University of Göttingen, where I lead the Chair of Food Economics and Policy. My research examines how food standards, trade policy, and market shocks shape agrifood trade, firm behaviour, and food-system resilience. I am also an Associate Editor at the Journal of Agricultural Economics.
