Biography

Greetings! My name is Andreas, and I’m a postdoc at TU Dresden. I obtained my PhD from FU Berlin as part of the Berlin School of Economics (BSoE) and am a guest researcher at DIW Berlin.

I’m an applied microeconomist specializing in labor economics and the economics of education. I combine quasi-experimental methods, large-scale data, and economic theory to understand the determinants and consequences of investments in different types of skills.
