Personal profile
Research summary
I am a Research Associate at LISER since January 2021. Before joining the Labour Market Department there, I was a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the Chair of Labour Economics and New Political Economy at the Alfred-Weber-Institut (University of Heidelberg). I have pursued my PhD in Economics at Trinity College Dublin - while being an Irish Research Council Postgraduate Scholar.
My research interests revolve around migration, innovation, economic history and, more broadly, applied microeconomics.
I speak Italian, English, French, and German. I like coding languages too: R, Markdown, Python, HTML, and LATEX. There are a few examples in the dedicated section of my personal website.
You can find my updated CV here.
