Welcome! I am an economic researcher at CSIL’s Development & Evaluation Unit (Milan) and at the Luigi Einaudi Research Centre (Turin).

I carry out applied research and evaluations of public policies, investment programs, and projects. I also conduct research with a policy-oriented focus on labor market performance and contribute regularly to policy publications.

I hold a Ph.D. in Economics from CEMFI. My research spans macroeconomics and labor, with a focus on income dynamics and labor market duality. I also work with econometrics and large administrative data. I earned an MSc in Economics from Bocconi University and studied at the University of Turin and at the Collegio Carlo Alberto (Honors Program). I previously worked as a research assistant at Bocconi University and Fondazione DeBenedetti.

New: I am currently visiting the Italian Social Security Institute (INPS) as a researcher in the VisitINPS scholars program.
