My name is Gabriel, I study topics in International Macroeconomics. My work explores the consequences of sovereign default risk for the maturity structure of public debt, sectoral reallocation, capital accumulation, and fiscal-monetary interactions. I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at The Ohio State University. I received my PhD in 2016, from the University of Rochester. I am Romanian and, if you're curious, this is how you pronounce my last name.
