I studied economics in Budapest, at the Corvinus University, obtained my MA at the College of Europe, Bruges and my PhD at the Université catholique de Louvain. While working on my PhD thesis I worked at the Centre for European Policy Studies where I conducted policy related research in the field of Trade and Foreign Direct Investment. Before joining SSEES in 2006 I also worked at the Tinbergen Institute as a researcher, and at the European Commission, Directorate-General for Economic and Financial Affairs.

Research Interests
My research activities cover issues related to international trade, foreign direct investment, mergers and acquisitions. My current and past work in these fields looked at the role of trade costs, infrastructure, and institutions in economic integration; the issue of home bias and non-tariff barriers, the importance of trade preferences, multilateral trade liberalization; rules of origin, and regional economic integration in Europe.
