Welcome!

I am a Lecturer & Researcher in Economics (Enseignant-Chercheur LRU) at the University of Southern Brittany and a member of the LEGO research center.

I received my Ph.D. in Economics from Jean Monnet University and the University of Lyon (France) in 2025, based at GATE Lyon-Saint-Étienne. During my Ph.D., I was also a Visiting Ph.D. Student at the University of Oxford, within the Institute for New Economic Thinking at the Oxford Martin School (INET Oxford) and the Department of Social Policy and Intervention.

My research interests lie in the economics of inequality from an interdisciplinary perspective, particularly its measurement and policy implications, as well as broader questions of income distribution, redistribution, and the politics of inequality.

I completed both an M.Res. and an M.A. in Economics & Social Sciences at Lumière University Lyon 2, held a one-year fellowship for the ‘Amartya Sen Program’ awarded by the University of Buenos Aires, and earned a five-year B.A. in Economics from the National University of Cuyo.
