Welcome to my website! 

I am Assistant Professor of Economics at the University of Milan "La Statale". 

I hold a PhD in Economics from the University of Pavia and a master degree in Economics and Social Sciences from the University of Sydney. 

I am Research Fellow of the Global Labor Organization (GLO), and I collaborate with SIEP - Società Italiana di Economia Pubblica - as managing and social media editor.

I am also a member of the Scientific Committee fot the Journal of Public Finance and Public Choice.

My research interests are in the fields of Economic History, Growth and Development, Gender Economics, and Political Economy. In particular, I am interested in the interaction between long-run development and institutions in a historical perspective with a special focus on gender issues: I study the relationship between education and fertility, the role of gender equality in shaping past and current socioeconomic phenomena, the political and socioeconomic factors that affect preferences and gender gaps in the economic and political domains.

Before joining La Statale, I was post-doctoral researcher at the University of Pavia (2018-2019) and at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia (2012-2018).
