Welcome! I am a second-year PhD student in Economics at Imperial College London. My main field of research is empirical industrial organization, which I use to study research questions in competition policy, international trade, and health economics.
I received my MSc (with Distinction) in Economics from UCL in 2021. Prior to that, I receive my BSc summa cum laude from the Sapienza University of Rome.
Between 2022 and 2023, I was a pre-doctoral research fellow at Yale University’s Department of Economics. Also at Yale, I was a graduate visiting student at the Department of Mathematics.
I am originally from Rome, Italy.
