About

I am a third year PhD candidate in the Department of Economics at Sciences Po, supervised by Eduardo Perez-Richet and Jeanne Hagenbach

I am interested in understanding how users' behaviors and regulations shape the outcomes of the digital economy.

For that, I use microeconomic theory, behavioral, and experimental economics.

Current research interests:

  • Recommender systems
  • Price Discrimination

  • Strategic Information Disclosure to Classification Algorithms: An Experiment, with Jeanne Hagenbach                      See Paper       See Online Appendix

    Abstract : We experimentally study how individuals strategically disclose multidimensional information to a Naive Bayes algorithm trained to guess their characteristics. Subjects' objective is to minimize the algorithm's accuracy in guessing a target characteristic. We vary what participants know about the algorithm's functioning and how obvious are the correlations between the target and other characteristics. Optimal disclosure strategies rely on subjects identifying whether the combination of their characteristics is common or not. Information about the algorithm functioning makes subjects identify correlations they otherwise do not see but also overthink. Overall, this information decreases the frequency of optimal disclosure strategies.

  • Price Discrimination with Endogenous Participation

    • Abstract : We study a platform that informs a monopolist seller about buyer valuations. The platform's interests are perfectly aligned with the seller's. Buyers decide whether to enter by comparing their expected surplus on the platform to their random outside option. The platform commits to a segmentation strategy, internalizing the effect of information on buyer participation.
