Welcome! I am delighted to announce my recent appointment as an Academy Research Fellow at the University of Helsinki, within the Discipline of Economics, and Helsinki Graduate School of Economics. My new grant also makes me the Principal Investigator of the project "Information System Design for Overcoming Market Failure" (2024-2028), funded by the Research Council of Finland.

My research addresses markets with various information frictions, aiming to identify efficient solutions to mitigate market failure. Recently, my work has been focused on digital markets, behavioral industrial organization, mechanism design theory for optimal tax audits, and information challenges in decentralized markets.
