About me

I’m currently a PhD candidate at the Center for Research in Economics and Statistics (CREST) and a doctoral affiliate at the Institute for Public Policies (IPP). I work under the supervision of Alessandro Riboni.

I visited the Center for Data Science, Law and Economics at ETH Zürich for the academic year 2020-2021, invited by Elliott Ash.

Topics: political economy, applied econometrics, text as data

You can find my CV here.
