Teaching
I hold the Dutch "University Teaching Qualification". In 2023, I have been awarded a "Teaching Innovation Grant" by the Tilburg School of Economics and Management to develop a macroeconomics course bridging the gap between bachelor's and master's macroeconomics. This generous financial support lead to the course "Quantitative Dynamic Macroeconomics". It teaches an introduction to modern macroeconomics, especially Dynamic-Stochastic-General-Equilibrium (DSGE) models and its quantitative methods, to analyze monetary and fiscal policy for business cycle analysis.
