Hi there. I'm Leon
I have recently completed a PhD in economics at the University of Otago and I'm currently looking for work.
I work in causal econometrics. Specifically, the development of new estimators for program evaluation in observational settings.
I also specialise in spatial econometrics and machine learning methods and am interested in natural hazard risks and urban development.
