Research

PhD Candidate, Agent-Based Simulation · Nov. 2023 – present

LIP6, Sorbonne Université, MAS group. Supervised by Jean-Daniel Kant and Cédric Herpson.

Extending TerraSim, an agent-based model of the French economy developed at LIP6, into the energy domain. My thesis combines macroeconomic consistency with household- and firm-level heterogeneity, in order to evaluate energy policies through both their aggregate outcomes and their differentiated effects on individual agents (firms, households, energy, etc.).
