Fields of interest
Household decision making, structural estimation and applied microeconometrics.
Current research
I am currently working on life cycle consumption and how children may affect the consumption behavior of households.
Also, I am investigating the joint retirement behavior of Danish couples.
Short presentation
Personal homepage: www.tjeconomics.com
I am a computational economist employed as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Economics at University of Copenhagen. My main research interests are solving and estimating dynamic economic models. I have worked with models of intertemporal consumption and saving in relation to fertility behavior and children and labor supply and retirement.
