Postdoctoral Researcher, Stanford Digital Economy Lab

Adam’s research lies at the intersection of labor and urban economics, with a focus on structural change in labor markets and the hiring and spatial decision making of firms. His doctoral thesis studies the determinants and consequences of the rise in working from home in terms of firm decision making, worker-firm matching, labor market composition, and city structure. He also has ongoing work on firms’ skill demand, assortative matching in labor and marriage markets, and the effects of AI and technological change on the labor market.

Adam is also affiliated with Uppsala University, the Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program – Humanity and Society (WASP-HS), the Uppsala Center for Labor Studies (UCLS) and Lab^2. 

He completed his PhD at the Department of Economics at Uppsala University in 2026. In 2024, he visited the Department of Economics at the University of Oxford.
