In September 2025, I defended my PhD in Economics titled ‘The best of both desks? Assessing trade-offs associated with teleworking’ at the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration (Ghent University) 🎓

The main conclusions of my doctoral dissertation are summarised in this UGent@Work Policy Brief and Gents Economisch Inzicht 📖

I feel very grateful to my fantastic supervisors Prof. Dr. Stijn Baert, Prof. Dr. Elsy Verhofstadt and Prof. Dr. Luc Van Ootegem and jury members Prof. Dr. Karin Proost, Prof. Dr. Willem Standaert, Prof. Dr. Kathleen Vangronsvelt, Prof. Dr. Mieke Audenaert, Dr. Brecht Neyt and Prof. Dr. Dirk Van de gaer 🙌

Together with my friends and family (including my three little ones, of whom I am so proud for how well they behaved during the public defence), they made the evening truly memorable and heart-warming 🙏
