Had a great experience at #EALE2024! Now off to explore the fjords before heading back, feeling reenergized for the start of term 📚🙂

🖐️@CortesEcon muestra que, desde 1980 hasta la fecha, aumentó la demanda de habilidades sociales en los trabajos mejor pagos.
👉Eso explicaría el aumento que se observa en la participación de mujeres en las ocupaciones mejor pagas.

We know that recessions push people into college, but what are the consequences of this choice on the labor market?
With @ABicakova and @CortesEcon we provide an answer in this paper just accepted at #laboureconomics

Working on this paper was great (and helped keep me busy/sane during the early months of the pandemic). The road to publication was pretty frustrating at times (perhaps not surprising for a Covid paper), but I’m so happy it’s finally out in the world 🙂

Taught my first in-person lecture since early March 2020. Even with the masks and all, it felt soooo nice 🤓😍
At so many points during the PhD I thought that I was never going to make it, that I wasn’t good enough, that I wasn’t cut out for research.. To see this now.. it just blows my mind 🤯🥰💪😀 Thank you to the amazing mentors and coauthors who believed in me and made this possible!

I’m visiting the Utrecht School of Economics and I was given the keys to the visitor’s office.. and to the department bike!! I don’t think it can get more Dutch than this! :) 🚲🇳🇱
Oh, and it’s sooo nice to do a seminar in person again after all this time! 😀
Here is a link to a short blog post summarizing our research (with @JacopoMazza and @ABicakova) on the benefits of starting college during bad economic times 🙂
