Hi, I'm Jakob! I'm a Postdoctoral Scholar at the Institute for Fiscal Studies working on issues in public and labor economics.

My research mainly deals with tax avoidance/evasion and inequality, but my interests also extend more broadly to applying microeconomic and econometric methods to learning about social issues.

Prior to moving to London, I completed my PhD in the beautiful Berkeley, California. Before then, I lived in Manhattan and Reims, France, where I finished my undergraduate degrees.
