About me

I am a PhD candidate at the Institute of Economic Studies, Charles University, a PhD Researcher with the CORPTAX group, and a Research Fellow at Skatteforsk. I am also involved in the DemoTrans project, which explores ways to strengthen democratic governance through more accountable, transparent, and effective institutions.

My research focuses on wealth taxation and illicit financial flows. Through my work, I aim to improve the design of tax systems and contribute to evidence-based solutions that address global tax abuse and inequality. I have led seminars on measuring illicit financial flows and profit shifting for government officials in Nigeria.

Bachelor theses: I offer supervision for theses on multinational taxation, tax avoidance, tax evasion, tax abuse, and corruption with a specific focus on developing countries.

Master theses: As a PhD candidate, I primarily supervise Bachelor theses. You are encouraged to select your Master thesis supervisor from the current IES faculty. If you still want me to supervise your Master's thesis, contact me via email.
