I am a Senior Economist at the Federal Reserve Board of Governors.
My main research interests are within quantitative macroeconomics and cover housing, household finance, and family economics.Â
Most of my policy work at the Fed centers on real estate (or formally: real private residential and nonresidential fixed investment).
You can call me by my first name Eirik. If you want to be fancy, it is pronounced somewhat like "AY-rik" with "ay" as in "day", though "Eric" is a fine substitute.
