Theodoros Velentzas - Personal Website


Hello! My name is Theodoros Velentzas and I am a PhD candidate in Economics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, expecting to graduate in May 2024. My academic journey has equipped me with expertise in areas such as Applied Microeconometrics, Political Economy, and Labor Economics. During my studies, I’ve been engaged in research, exploring topics ranging from economic performance and electoral outcomes to labor market dynamics. Before my doctorate studies, I completed my BSc in Economics at the University of Macedonia in Greece, graduating in June 2018.

In the professional realm, I gained valuable experience as an Economist Intern at Redfin, where I conducted data analysis and econometric modeling to support research projects.

As I near the completion of my doctoral studies, I am actively seeking opportunities in the private sector where I can apply my expertise and make a meaningful impact combining economics and data.
