Since the year 2011 I have been working at the French Institute of Science and Technology for Transport, Development and Networks (IFSTTAR). Firstly as a research engineer and since October 2013 as a Ph.D. Candidate. This experience strengthened my drafting and analytical skills. The need for methodological advances in order to more realistically model the complexity of establishment decision-making processes, such as their optimal location choices was the key motivation of my Ph.D. thesis.
This My thesis focuses on accommodation of spatial spillovers, strategic interactions, and price endogeneity for
establishment and firm location choices
of establishments and firms to provide a more explicit and richer picture of the regional linkages reinforcing local growth and economic development. The developed tool assists in finding a befitting site, which in turn can make a considerable difference for the newly-created business. The contents of the thesis provide some useful recommendations for city planners, transport analysts, real estate agents, urban social theorists, for entrepreneurs, business owners, and shopping center investors. Proposed models account for variables that represent: access to the workforce, demographic characteristics, physical quality, availability of vacant land and of dedicated floor space, accessibility to transport infrastructure (access to public transit networks, road networks), access to other amenities such as universities, services and commerce, pre-existing large
establishments establishments, within- and
within-industry inter-industry entities, prices and tax levels. My Ph.D. thesis is comprised of
six chapters and is written in a form of essays. The general introduction and the overall conclusion encompass four scientific papers
entitled: (1) Location choices of newly-created establishments: Spatial patterns at the aggregate level, (2) Why choose one when I can pick both? Marrying metrics using a mixture model of the intrametropolitan location choice of establishments, (3) Location choices under strategic interactions: Interdependence of establishment types, and (4) Locational strategies of multi-store firms: A daytime population. The first paper has been published
or under the revision in the
A-class international journals, such as, "Regional Science and Urban
Economics Journal" (RSUE). The second paper is under the second review at the Economics" or "Networks and Spatial
Economics Journal". The third has been submitted to the RSUE Journal. This demonstrates strong scientific writing skills. Economics".
%The approach being proposed in this thesis is mostly computational. Techniques explored in this thesis embody the models which use both aggregate and individual data. Discrete choice and count data models have been applied to study the establishment location choices accounting for strategic interactions and spatial effects to capture the surrounding economic landscape.
%Four papers of which this thesis is comprised, sought to open a dialogue with numerous researchers, who voiced in their works some complaints and burning needs to be accomplished.
Since the year 2011 I have been working at the at the French Institute of Science and Technology for Transport, Development and Networks (IFSTTAR). First as a research engineer and since October 2013 as a Ph.D. candidate.
In 2015 I obtained an International Mobility Research Fellowship which opened me the door to the collaboration with the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (Switzerland), where I conducted the research on the strategic interactions and interdependence of industries using discrete choice models

Prior to joining the IFSTTAR team, I worked as a research engineer at the
École normale supérieure Ecole Normale Supérieure Paris-Saclay (previous E.N.S. Cachan)
(France) on two projects:
%one of the most prestigious and selective French Grandes Écoles:
(1) The SustainCity Project under European Commission CORDIS 7th Research Framework Programme, Socio Economic Sciences and Humanities with a concentration on the module "Microsimulation and firm demographic models" (http://www.sustaincity.org). To describe the life cycle of the establishments, we proposed a threefold firmographic model which explains the disappearance, evolution and location choice of the business units. A clear understanding of the behavior of establishments over time is crucial in forecasting the development of the region, and related land use and transportation issues. The changes in business units affect the spatial distribution of jobs and economic activities in the urban area. These processes are of great interest for both scientists and policy makers. Firmographic models, which we built, provide a useful tool to develop policies which encourage sustainable economic growth and preserve social systems; and (2) The Grand Paris Project (Société du Grand Paris) having
as an objective to measure the attractiveness of the major territorial development contracts and computation of direct and indirect effects in location choice model (http://www.societedugrandparis.fr).
The focus of my education has been always
put laid on the Applied Economics. I gained a double Master degree in Models and Methods of Quantitative Economics (QEM Erasmus Mundus) from the Paris School of Economics/Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne (France) and the Bielefeld University (Germany).
