Presentation

I am mainly interested in the link between transport (particularly public transport) and regional development. Infrastructure and transport have a spatial impact on economic geography, how different markets interact over space and how this in turn influence how regions progress. I have looked at the impact of commuter rail on local property markets, changing travelling behaviour when introducing new transport mode in rural areas.

I have a PhD in Economics from Jönköping international Business School and my dissertation dealt with international trade, demand structure and income distribution.
